feeling weak and depressed.....
ana replied to johan22's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
at 3 weeks out of surgery i was syill asking miyself what have i done, however now i'm at 9 weeks out and i know 100% that this surgery is by far the best think that i did for my self my entire fife (exept 4 my kids)!!!! i am happy....happy and very pleased with my results (lost 36 lb) HAVING SAID THAT in a few weeks you will loook back and laugh !!!! U WILL BE EXCITED AND HAPPY 2!!! And don't wory in a fewweeks u will actually be able to eat small but decent portions, that will probably make u a litle more strong and make u feel better. At 9 weeks out (and i've been dooing this for 3 weeks) i'm going to the gim 6 days a week and i'm doing a one hour class just like everybodyelse with no problems. I would suggest going to the gim begining with your 6-7 week not earlier! your incizions need time to heal, u don't want a hernia! Enough about me, I hope It will work out for you and I wish you the best!!!! -
Burning, tugging inside belly pain
ana replied to tennessee1031's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I had a similar experience at 2-3 weeks out of surgery, i was not able to walk unless i was holding my stomac at the incision or unless i wearing a gim belt around my waist. I was afraid of a hernia but my doctor told me exactely the same thing that your doctor said-nerve pain- so i just really tried to make less efort i staid in bed and rested and the pain went away in 2-3 days (i had the pain for 2 days only after a 14 hours flight back to US, i had my surgery in Romania, i also had my one year old dauther with me that just wanted to play and walk around in the plain so in my situation i think that's what probably got me exhausted). I WISH YOU THE BEST OF LUCK!!!! and I HOPE YOU FELL BETTER SOON!!! -
hi, my name is Ana, I'm going for my surgery in Romania(Jan 15 surgery date), I'm planning to stay for 3 weeks, in the first week i will have the blood work done and the surgery, last two weeks for recovery. I am taking my 11 months old-daugther with me and also my 70 year old aunt will travel with us to help me. MY QUESTION IS : will I be able to travel back to USA a 13 hour plane trip, with one stop in England included, 2 weeks out of surgery considering that I will have my daughter with me? (she will have her own seat) Thank you!!!!!
