I work from home but only 4 hrs a day. I started back but definitely can tell when I have sat for 4 hrs. I stand up and my stomach sore. It's better. Today I went to the grocery and did not drink enough before going and I got weak. Ever get behind on drinking fluids it takes a while to catch up.

Good luck to the 5/31 surgeries!
I’m off to the beach with my daughter for some of the Memorial Day weekend. DH is staying home with the dogs and her twin brother to do some fishing and golf.
My surgery is 6/8…5:30 am arrival to hospital and 7:30 surgery.
Thinking of all of you who are on deck for this week! You ALL have got this!

I had my surgery on May 25. I am learning how do this each day. I will talk with Nutritionist this coming week. I am still learning how not to eat so fast.

I had my post-op check up appointment today (at 11 days post-op) and I’ve been approved to move onto purées - I’m so excited!

Scouring this site and online generally for ideas; if anyone has any suggestions they enjoyed at this stage I’d love to hear them 😀

Yay! I'm still a week away but can't wait.

I am really looking forward to some refried Beans and the ricotta bake.

I just had my surgery on the 26th, so I’m fresh off the table lol it’s been a struggle remembering to sip my liquids and get some walking in. Especially because I felt so tired and lethargic after the first couple of days. I feel a little more energized now though! Good luck to everyone else.

Congrats on your surgery! The first couple of days were tough for me too, the key thing is to take care of yourself, rest when you need to, it’s so important for your recovery.

Don’t obsess about walking, as long as you are moving about periodically you’ll be great. Each day for me came with a little more energy, and it was easier to get fluids in, then it was easier to walk, which gave me a bit of an appetite etc, etc. I promise you it’ll get easier - keep the faith & trust the process 😊

I haven't had my surgery yet. It is scheduled for April 12th but this site and the people here are so great. There is so much information here! I thought I had done a ton of research but hearing about real people and things they have encountered both good and bad has been very helpful for me. Good luck to all May surgeries [emoji171]

I agree had mind on May 24

Hi May Surgery 2022 well tomorrow is the big day for me, so why I get Bun/Creatinine results back and it is a 25. I am thinking I'm staying well hydrated, I use 2 apps helping me to and reminding me to drink Water, so I'm thinking what else could it be? Like they say no news is good news because my doctor haven't said anything about it. Any feedback?

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
