Had my surgery yesterday



Recommended Posts

Hi Jenn! I had my surgery yesterday also. I'm doing great, too! I started walking yesterday and I had my first medicine cup of Water this morning at 7am. I just finished cup 2&3 and went on walk #5. I'm doing everything I can to recover quickly. Glad to hear you are doing well also. Let's stay in touch!!

That's a lot of liquid!! I hope you are keeping good records, lol. :)

Congratulations to both of you on your surgeries yesterday! Mine was 5 weeks ago today. The day after my surgery I was barely conscious, lol. My oxygen kept dropping into the 70s and I was extremely nauseous, so my recovery didn't start until 2 days post-op. I wish you both speedy recoveries. Welcome to the other side! :)

Use the spirometer!! I ended up with pneumonia a week post op and it's made an already rough journey so much harder than it would have been !! Also do everything you can to stay hydrated, that's no fun either ! I'm 19 days post op today and just now feeling good again.

My surgery was on Monday and I am still in the hospital but hoping to go home tomorrow. Getting my walks in and my plan is to not have more than two oz of Fluid per hour. Funny how every plan I'd different. My oxygen and blood pressure are still low but hopefully they will be all set tomorrow. Good to tal to others with same surgery dates.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...
