Congrats on having the surgery and also for asking for help! That's the 1st step with anything!!! You want to start back up and that's huge! I'm just a couple weeks out of surgery so I'm no expert but I do try to find positivity with most things. It's been rough for me too. I lost my mom on dec 20th and had my surgery on the 26th. So yea..I havent been top motivated to do anything! What is helping me get through each day is the fact that I have each day to get better. It's one day at a time! Start slow getting as much protein as you can. Try to eliminate the carbs and go from there. This isn't a sprint! It's a life long marathon that we can get through. We had the surgery so we could better ourselves. So that's what we need to do. I'm here if you need someone to chat with [emoji16]

Have you connected with a surgeon in your new state for continuing followup visits? The will see patients on whom they didn't operate. Also, look for support groups in your new area. They are usually open to everyone, no matter where you had surgery. Good luck!

Thank you & I’m so sorry for your lost ! & your right I just need to take it one day at a time and just put myself back on track. Mainly stay positive

Thank you so much

What specifically are you having problems with? That'd help us be better able to give you some advice.

Getting back on track

It’s like my body being stubborn

I was exactly this way at 8 months. I pulled out all of my nutrition notes and acted like I was prepping for surgery. I did protein shakes and fluids for 1 week and then started back to eating small meals again choosing protein first and no bread. This helped reset my mind again. This is a journey, not a sprint. WE will fall down. Just pick yourself up and try, try again. You can do this!! Remember you are worth it!!
