    3 weeks Out, 1000 calories?

    At 3 weeks i was barely getting 400 calories, i was barely getting 20 g of protein. My Nut said i need to be eating 800 calories and 60 g of protein. Im weeks and im still struggling with reaching 600 calories but my protein shakes help get 60 g of protein.

    FMLA vent

    Obesity is a disease, they cannot deny the surgery if the surgeons believes its necessary so that you can become healthy and not die from diabetes, high blood pressure, ect.

    FMLA vent

    No problems with me FMLA request, but i do believe it had the kind of surgery i was having. Which HR is not to disclose your information to anyone.
  4. My Nut told me to start taking my vitamins before surgery. I started taking one month before. I am 6 weeks post op, i started walking an hour a day 4 days after surgery and have not missed a day since. I feel great, with a lot energy.
  5. While working out i got real thirsty all of a sudden. I gulped water and immediately felt nauseous for about 15 minutes. Horrible feeling, i was about 2 weeks post op.
  6. I want to be a size 10, started at a size 24.

    Excercise

    I am 6 weeks post op and didnt work out twice bc i was really sick. But i work out every day 3- 4 miles on the treadmill and use dumbells slowly increasing the number on each hand. For example today i went shopping literally alllll day went to about 20 stores, got back home at 7 pm and still worked out an hour and weights. I have lost 30 lbs.

    First time no problems, and after that i didnt have a bowel movement i took milk of magnesium for two days and everything came out great but i A LOT of blood in my stool for like 4 days. So i have not tried milk of magnesium again. Surgery Nov 9
  13. I have been in a 2 week stall. And after surgery i have only lost 14 pounds which include the 5 lbs i gained at the hospital. I am starting to feel discouraged but alot of people stated that we jusy have to wait this out. I had surgery Nov 9. I guess we will get there if we stick to the surgeons plan.

    Taking time off questions

    I let human resources know the date i got my date for surgery. We did not discuss amount of time they wanted me to take off. When the surgeons office sent them the fmla documents he stated a little more than 2 weeks. my job had no say so on when i needed to come back.
