I was walking within 5 hours of surgery. Try to go for 5-10 mins every 45mins to every hour it really truly does help w pain and getting rid of those gasses

I was up and walking about 3hours after my surgery, and where I got my sleeve done I was at the hospital less then 24hrs. I had my surgery at 12:30 in the afternoon on 1/28 I was home by 10am on the 29. But I know a lot of places do require a 2-3 day stay.

I stayed two nights and much like the others, was able to walk several hours after surgery. I only walked a few minutes at a time, about every 1 1/2 - 2 hours. It did help with gas and pain some. My band insertion surgery seemed more painful... as I recall the port killed me for at least a week.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
