  1. I had the surgery Weds and was discharged on Friday. They kept me in an extra day due to nausea and pain. But I was very motivated to get back to work in order to save remaining PTO days! So I am working from home this week and it is going fine. I need to stand and stretch more but no issues. So for me I took a total of 3 days off.
  2. Hi- I am 6 days post op and am in about the same boat. I feel good. I am maybe a little more uncomfortable when sitting at my desk which I need to do for 8 hours a day. I have gone back to work full time since I can work at home while I sip my constant liquids. I am not hungry either but I like the term head hunger. That is a great way to describe the desire for pepperoni pizza that I have every now and then still. I am working on just sipping my liquids but I gave up on using the little cup. I found that 3 small sips was equal to the cup. But I don't always wait the 15 min. Is that okay or could I already be stretching my sleeve? I am getting 30 grams of Protein but only taking in about 200-300 calories. Is it okay that I have lost 12 pounds in 6 days? My energy is decent but I do get a little light headed on the treadmill. Not doing a ton but trying for 10 min twice a day. Thanks for any advice.
