2 weeks 4 days post op

Today was a huge win. I was given the all clear last Thursday at my two week post op to return to the gym. I have a few restrictions. No abs and I must sit when lifting weights to start. I also am able to return to spin. The first week home was an emotional roller coaster but now it’s smooth sailing. I have to say anyone considering this surgery do it. It will change your life for the better. I’m down 25lbs since starting the pre op diet so about a month total time. I can feel it all over and people are now starting to notice. 75 more pounds to go and I know it’s going to happen this year.

I'm happy you got the all clear. My doctor at 3 weeks- said no way. Until I'm able to consume enough calories that support regular activity that any extra workouts were out of the question and not safe. I have not updated my stats, but I'm currently 30 pounds down from my pre-hospital weight on May 1st. I am doing really good to get 500 calories in a day most of the time it's 400 or less. What is your caloric intake?

Not sure what my calorie intake is. My doctor wants 60-90 oz of protein a day so that’s what I try to achieve. Some days are easier than others for sure.
