Bunion surgery



Recommended Posts

I’m 3 mos post op and lost 50 pounds. I’m scheduled for bunion surgery late Dec. this is the only time I️ can do it as I️ won’t be able to drive for 2 weeks, on crutches for 3 weeks and in a boot for 6 weeks. I’m a teacher so I’ll be using dec vacation and 2 weeks in January to recover. Then I’ll have the boot only for less than 3 weeks at work. I️ saw my weight loss group yesterday and they said it was fine physically but they mentioned I️ could gain weight from being home and not exercising. I️ explained that I️ want to be able to be out of foot pain so I️CAN walk more miles and start running again by spring and when I️ go to Florida in February. And that as a teacher I️ can’t really take 3 weeks off and the dec break is long and also I️ gain two Monday holidays. I️ don’t see how I️ would gain weight. I’ll be back to barre hopefully after a month and my calories are under a thousand a day. Anyone gone through surgery after sleeve that limits mobility? What have your experiences been?

Thanks!

      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! 😞
