I am 2 and half weeks out of surgery. I was so tired of hearing how bad I looked last week. If I did anything I had to lay down and take a nap. It is still worth every minute of it. I am figuring out my new stomach now. Eating some and even though my kids and coworkers know Im surprised at how often they tell me to eat (they just dont understand how long it takes to eat and how little I can eat). I am getting some of my energy back but still would love to take a couple of naps a day if I could fit them in. I need to get to walking more and get my cardio workout going now but at this point I dont think I can add a whole lot. I am down 27 lbs from surgery and 37 lbs down since beginning of this journey. I am so excited for my new life and my new body.
