I am a few days late but my 1 month post op was on 12/3/16!!

I'm not going to say it went by quick because it didn't. I was one of the unlucky persons who was just going through it the first 2 weeks.

I have officially lost 15lbs which I am really excited about. My confidence is coming back. I still have one more week of soft food and I am still working on getting enough Protein and Water in a day.

I can't say how much I miss being able to gulp!

I work in the ER so my average steps in a day are around 16,000-18,000 ranging from 4-6 miles a day. And that's pretty much 4x a week. So no working out either. I do push ups from time to time though.

I do feel like I am going at a very slow process but I am happy to be at least 15lb down.

I wanted to put up a face to face to help motivate people especially the 1-2day post op sleevers. It gets better. I can't wait to see what I look like at my 2 month Post op! Top is surgery day and bottom is today! STATS:

HW: 246 SW:231

Damn, that is a beautiful smile!

16K steps a day?! Incredible! I was winded walking from my couch to the bathroom one month out from my surgery. You are going to be a superstar success of you follow the rules eating and keep walking like that.

I'll be watching you to see how brightly you shine.

Congrats! We are at the same stage and have the same stats (mostly). My 1 month was 12-2. I feel like I could've written the same post! (Minus the walking.) I've not been getting around much, feeling pretty tired a lot. HW 243; SW 231; CW 213; GW 165. Keep it up!

Thank you for sharing. It's amazing how much a difference 15 lbs can make! I haven't had my surgery yet. I am a nurse on a busy medsurge /tele unit. I've been looking for other medical workers on here and I'd love to have input on how quickly you were able to go back to work, what your experience was like, dos and donts, etc.

I was back at work after 4 weeks working 12 hr nights. Probably could have gone back sooner because I felt great but still had a lifting restriction. Best of luck to you!

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
