Are you drinking your fluids, including your protein drink? As far as incisions, my largest one is still sore. The others I have no sensitivity to it. You can put some antibacterial ointment on it. If you have great concern, you should see a doctor. Don't fret over this....be proactive. Make some calls so you feel comfortable and confident. I was not overly tired post surgery....and my energy level increases as days go. I did feel light headed in the beginning and I was told to increase fluids, especially broth and protein drink. Good luck and keep us posted.

Yes, all is normal except the stitch part. I would make sure it's not infected. Call your doctor if you are unsure. the tiredness will last for about a week or so. Your body has to get used to not having much food. Also, you have just been through a huge TRAUMA with the surgery. The emotions will be up and down for a few months. The reason is that our hormones are stored in our fat cells...as they shrink, the body gets shocked with all these extra hormones. You can feel the changes coming, but if you are anything like me, you just don't care. LOL I am still not sure how my husband didn't leave me during that time. Best of luck and if you have any more questions, let us know....we are all here for you!!!

    • I’ve used my Xbox for exercise games too and it can be pretty motivating, especially on days when I don’t want to leave the house. Kinect games really do make you move, and after a session with kickboxing or dancing, I always feel like I’ve actually gotten a solid workout. The controller-free setup feels way more natural for workouts than anything I tried on the Wii. Zumba is fun but definitely takes a little time to get the moves right. Lately, when I’m not working out, I spend time trading CS2 skins and finding new guides on this link. There’s a lot of interesting tips if you’re into games outside of fitness too.
