Taking online classes while waiting for sergury date.



Recommended Posts

I just started my weight loss journey .i am almost done with all of my pre op test which should be finishing within the next couple of months. If everything goes well I will be having my sergury in March or April. My online class starts in

January for 16wk . I am wondering if I should take the class or wait until next semester which starts in June?

Any advice.

I'm getting a mostly online MBA and had no trouble. Do some work before surgery to be ahead. Day 3 or 4 I needed something to do, and school work was easy to do in bed. I wouldn't be too concerned.

I would take it. If you don't have complications, you should have no problems. If you do have complications, talk to your professor immediately so it won't affect your grades.

I had a baby in grad school, and she needed surgeries and additional care. These were not online classes, so I did miss some lectures and had to postpone the finals one semester because of surgery, but I worked really hard and managed a 4.0 throughout the program.

Good luck!

      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! 😞
