(Sleeved April 10th)

My body' date=' like my muscles- actually feel weak and ache.horribly

So sorry. I was sleeved the same day and went back today as well. My stomach is still a little sore and I'm kinda tired. Otherwise I think I'm ok. What kind of work do you do?

I'm a secretary so its a.desk job.

I have zero stomach / incision pain at this point thank God ...I'm not.sure I could handle both.

I sit as well. My stomach is sore/achy on the side my dr says my stomach was removed from and clamped down on.

My sleeve was Apr 17 and I went back last Thursday (because I had used all my time off I had accrued). I was too soon. I made it trough the day, barely. But I haven't been back. I am determined to go back tomorrow. Desk job and great boss and coworkers. They prop me up. So, I'm going to do it!

I was sleeved April 3, and when I went back to work I felt the same thing. First of all, going back to work kicked my ass!!! Second, my muscles felt bruised and sore. I think a lot of it comes from not consuming enough food for energy and then the rapid fat loss leaves our once "really" padded muscles less padded.

As of today, I'm down 30lbs total!! Woohoo!!!!

Its really not I had mine on the 3rd very hard work & u HAVE 2 keep up with everything

How much did u weigh when u went in 4 Surgery

I was almost 186. Started with a low BMI and never dreamed I'd lose that much that fast!!

I had a banana today..that's right - an entire banana!!!! Literally took me hours to eat it and that's all I had but I feel great!!! What a huge difference from yesterday

Had my two week post op appointment last Friday. I am doing great, he told me I could go straight to solids but I'm going to wait another week or so because of the swelling I have, kinda hard to swallow solid. I'm back to walking 8 miles a day while wearing a 20 pound vest, and once a week I wear my sauna suit along with it just to sweat out any toxins that my body has in it. He also released me to go on full blown without sessions that I will be staying this week.

Also, for anyone out there that is still sore/hurting. Remember, the more you walk/move around the faster that hurt/sorness goes away. I was walking 2 miles the days after surgery

Thanks True! I am weaning my pain meds today have only had Tylenol for the pain and not the OxyContin. This helps me to stay awake. I have not had a lot of energy as I struggle to get my fluid and protein in each day. I feel much better than I did yesterday. So each day is better. My goal Saturday is to do 15 mins on my elliptical to start shaking things up. I walk around my house every hour I am awake to keep things moving. Your encouragement is appreciated.
