3 weeks out from

I just got off full liquid and embarking on the purees. Wounds are healing fine and no soreness there. I do feel a mild gut pain and really a constant fullness throughout the day. Im not sure if this is the norm and that Im still making my way through the healing process. I walk about 30 min a day and am looking foward to weight training in about a month. On the whole no real setbacks from the sleeve surgery but this constant feeling in my abdomen. I see my nurse in a couple weeks and ill wait till then to address this if still there. Anyone have this experience?

I have a 5/8 surgery date. How long did you take off from work before you felt confident to return?

I took two weeks off,glad i did. The first few days after surgery you can expect to feel bad i.e. Shoulder pain from the gas they put in you,abd. pain from surg sie and stomach pain with everything you swallow. Like they say...it get better after that. Try to walk at least 4-5 times a day for about 5-10min this will help. Always have your water with. I could have gone back to work after a week but that would have been pushing it. Even the first week back after 2 weeks off i was whipped when i got home and my job is not that strenuous.

Good luck with the life change!

Thanks I appreciate it. I'm taking two weeks off and been doing well with exercise and preop diet so I'm going for no complications.
