I work quite long hours. I am now 8 days post op. I had thought i was okay to go back today, lasted 3 hours and my boss told me i shouldnt be there and he didnt want to see me until thursday. I agree that youre better off doing your shifts but if you feel you cant last the day then head home Sent from my SM-N920I using the BariatricPal App

Hi All Day 6 post op and am 5kgs down and am starting to get concerned about saggy skin... What are all your thoughts, tips and tricks on trying to limit this? Im also really keen on getting back to the gym and lifting weights. Would really love all your input on how many days post op you guys got back to the gym? What sort of training plans do you follow?

Morning :-) I am feeling so much better today than in past days. I over did it yesterday though and tested my will power. The bf had his tribe of mates over for a bbq lunch. In which I made all the salads for and didnt snack out once on any of it. Then had a bbq tea at his aunts, which I also survived. I took a bowel of soup, as thats all im eating at the moment. I think I am starting to realise it is definately all about being prepared and not putting yourself in situations where you are left feeling forced to eating back to bad habbits. Oh no not coffee :-o ive read that coffee is hard to stomach at the begining. Luckily Im not a big coffee fan so its not as big of a deal for me. How are you today?

Hi @@danaymacklin what app are you using? Sent from my SM-N920I using the BariatricPal App

Failure :-/ that doesnt sound promising lol Im hoping to loose 35kgs about 80 pounds. I went for it as it was the most reversable option if it didnt work out :-) How was your day today? X Sent from my SM-N920I using the BariatricPal App

It will take a few months for a deficiency to develop. I had a LAP bad on the 23rd Jan. As part of my own plan Ive decided I will go ask the doctor to do monthly bloods for the first 6 months to ensure this. Also a deficiency can lead to hair loss etc...

Im now day 4 post op and the pain of eating is putting me off. In past when loosing weight it is all about will power, and practising will power. Telling yourself no and having the mental strength. It is definately a muscle you have to continue to work out. There are a lot of youtube clips about practising will power and how to increase this. Hope this helps in some way. All else fails go to bed early :-p Sent from my SM-N920I using the BariatricPal App

Sounds like a great idea. What is your facebook name and Ill add you. Im rebecca jones but there is a lot of me so generally im hard to fine Sent from my SM-N920I using the BariatricPal App

Yep didn't work. I don't really want to withdraw 20kfrom my super so I guess 12month wait begins now haha. Brookebelynda I wonder if you could just pay 12 months worth of premiums straight away and then not need the waiting period! Sent from my SM-G930F using the BariatricPal App Hi there!
