But i feel great and hardly have an appetite like before I do think about food but once I drink water or have some broth I am over it I got 11 more days before I am on purée

Wow! You're back to work already? I had surgery same day, and don't think I could go to work this soon! Good for you!! Keep up the good work!

Sounds like you're doing great! Hope it continues for you!

I was sleeved on the 27th and went back to work today (4/2). I'm lucky to have a desk job.

I too, am doing really well. I swallow better each day and feel I'm swallowing almost to before surgery but continue to take it easy. I never had any initial problems except my tummy letting me know it was too much.

The only pain is the external part of my stomach where the incisions were. It's minimal now but have to watch certain movements yet.

I think everyone reacts differently to surgery. Hopefully, we all end up pretty much feeling great in a few weeks.

Good luck!!

I was sleeved on Wednesday 2/20 and felt great by Monday, I have a desk job and returned back to work on Tuesday 2/26. I am now 6 weeks out and feel amazing, this is definitely the best thing that I have ever done for myself, I did have the dreaded 3 week stall that last 10 days, but I am now loosing again and eating much more 'normal' foods. Hoping that you continue feeling great!!

Very encouraging to hear that people do well after surgery ?I am scheduled for VSG on 5/13 and I sure would love a smooth transition back to work like some of you guys!!!!!!!

Wonderful! I hope for a speedy recovery like this.

So happy for you! It's great that you are doing so well, and I hope it continues for you. Keep up the amazing work!
