The good and the bad - 4 weeks post op

So far I’m loving not being constantly hungry, I enjoy food more when I’m not inhaling it and I find healthier things more tasty than before. I haven’t had any complications or severe side effects and I barely feel like anything has been done (except when I’m eating of course).

The not so great part at this point is not being able to drink water like I used to. I loooove chugging a huge glass of ice cold water and now I feel like I’m always thirsty even though I carry a bottle with me and sip constantly. Plus, I still can’t sleep on my stomach and it bugs me, but at least that’s temporary so it’s all good.

All in all, everything is going well and in my case it’s definitely worth it even though it has only been four weeks.

Trust me you will get there with the water. I could barely drink after surgery. Now I can chug just as much as before surgery. I'm almost 3.5 months post-op. I'm getting way more fluid in these days.

Sounds like you're doing very well, Keep up the good work. Good luck on your WLS journey.
