Excited to say I found a gym in Thornton that specializes in personal and group training for bariatric patients. I just started with them this week and was so happy to be working out with a group on the same journey. There were bypass, sleeve and lap band patients, some had surgery as long as 8-9 years ago and others like myself in the last year. HW- 261 SW- 252.6 CW- 200

There are support groups at St. Joseph's, Good Samaritan, Sky Ridge, Parker Adventist and Rose.

Do you track your food diary on My Fitness Pal? My surgery was 10/22/13, my HW 260, SW 252, CW 198. I feel like my pouch has stretched and it's taking more to satisfy my hunger. -

I've gone to one called "My Best Friends Closet", they have a store in North Field and another in the Orchard. I've also had great luck at Mile High Thrift Store for work clothes. I started in a 22 and have found Cold Water Creek and LB slacks and jackets in 16's and 18's.

I'm nine days post op today and woke up feeling pretty good. I did some vacuuming and laundry (no lifting) and now it feels like I may have pulled something on my upper right side, it's feeling very tight and sore. Has anyone else had this happen?

Sleeved 10/22 and down 17lbs, getting in two protein shakes a day and maybe 24 ozs. of water. Moved on to puréed today and had 1/2 a poached egg with 1/2 tb. Ricotta took me over an hour to finish and not sure if I'll be able to get my water and shakes in today....... -

Post Op and I feel awful! please help
yjt45 replied to Elationpod's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm on day 4 post op today and feel the same way you do, I think the drain and fatigue are the worse symptoms for me. I don't get the drain out till the 30th and I fear pulling it out on accident. I agree with everyone else though we just have to hang in there and remember why we're here and know it will get better........good luck! -
Thanks M2G, i'm new to this and still trying to figure it out.
