Vacation 4-1/2 months post op.



Recommended Posts

Looking for some advice about a vacation 4-1/2 months after surgery. Our friends invited us to go to Cancun at the end of September. All inclusive, friends are partiers, do you think that's enough time post op to go and be able to have a good time? I plan on partaking in a couple of cocktails (no flames please, I know the consequences) and I know my food intake will be much less. I just want to go and have fun with the group and not stick out like a sore thumb. I'm 2 weeks post op and doing very well. Getting all my Protein, Water, etc in and feeling pain free and great.

Thanks in advance for the advice.

I went to the keys a month post op but I didn't drink. If you still are uneasy about it, check with your doctor. I'm sure you'll be fine though.

I say- GO FOR IT! Have fun :)

I went to Vegas six weeks post op and did fine. I am 41/2 months out now and can handle the alcohol and food fine. Have fun!

      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! 😞
