Post Op Day 5 and I head back to work!



Recommended Posts

I'm day four, tomorrow is day five and I'm going to work! I'm excited.

I've done well health wise. Didn't need gas x or nausea meds, and I just room first and only dose of pain meds. I also pooped today! Increased my liquids and resolved my mind to do the right things.

I truly believe you feel better each day, walking works/helps and so does support. If you are not feeling better each day, outside of particular side issues, something might be wrong.

I see the Dr. day after tomorrow and will report how work and that visit goes.

Stay encouraged. Stay health.

That is awesome that your going back to work so soon. I was sleeved on 12/14 but won't go back to work til 1/23...partially because I need a break from work. How much have u lost?

I've lost 9 since surgery day. A total of 21 since starting pre op diet.

The quick return was a motivator to keep me moving and mastering my new normal.

      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! 😞
