Hey everyone...day 1 post op. yesterday was rough. I was only able to walk around the nurses station once yesterday. however I'm doing better today, more walking. My blood pressure is high 147/83 but it came down from 161/115. Yesterday I was in and out...and definitely the worst. I'm sure it's different for everyone. The best of luck to you guys.

Ahhh. Well they say it gets better by day 3. You're almost done with day 2. Good luck and hope you're feeling better.

Hi Ms. Yvette....yup it's been 2 weeks. I feel a lot better than the first week. The struggle was and is still real. I'm still trying to get used to everything. Having problems with meeting my Protein and liquid goals but still trying my best. My mental struggle w/this is slowly improving especially with time and great support from family and friends.

Glad you're feeling better. I hear a lot of people struggle with the protein. Maybe you can do an unflavored Protein powder and add that to the chicken broth from powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury which I think has 21 grams of protein. Stay strong and congratulations. The hard part is over.
