Greetings community,

I had VSG on Jan 7. I am doing ok with the food, but I am irritable and very tired. I started going to the gym and over did it. Had a lot of pain so now I'm back to walking. Reading the blogs helped me realize that I was expecting too much of myself and to just listen to my body.

Like my Little Bariatric motto, Your mind wrote a check Your body had trouble cashing and now your energy level is overdrawn. Guess you'll have to ease back in a little more gently, your body isn't ready for the MS OLYMPIA competition right now!??

Be careful. My doctor did not release me for excercise for 6 weeks post op. and that was dancing. He said only walking for the first 6 weeks.
