6 weeks post op

  • Popular Post

well I'm 6 weeks post OP, lost 41 pounds so far, and I feel great, i thought about retiring early, because i had spinal stenosis, and couldn't walk but 50 yards with out having to sit, because the pain was so bad,

but now I'm walking 5 miles per day, not at one time though, i feel like a new man, everyone notices but me, I cant see the weight loss, but i can feel the difference,

    Congratulations! You're about where I was 6 weeks out... it's kind of insane how quickly it dropped off. I noticed my joint pain is just... gone.

I'm in the same general area—3 to 5 pounds a week. It won't last forever, though, so enjoy it while it does. :D
