Post Op - going back to work

Perfect. I just spoke with one of the HR reps and she said I'll have to use 7 days of sick pay / vacation time and then I will be able to get short term disability, it doesn't pay my full normal pay check but anything is better than nothing [emoji4]

I hope I get my surgery date soon!





Yes, something is better than nothing!! Hope you find out soon! I hopefully find out today if mine will be June 26 or Aug 1.

That is great! I am hoping to have it sooner than later because I'm going away for the holiday season, and just want to make sure than I will be able to digest a bite or two of solid food and don't need to take an extra suitcase of Protein powders lol

They said the insurance company doesn't usually take a long time to respond but I'll feel better having a solid date [emoji4]

      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! 😞
