Trying to get more liquids in still. It's a constant battle. "In the end we only regret the chances that we didn't take."

I have it. You have to slow eating pace down. Just had my follow up today and was told that. Same exact issue you're having. "In the end we only regret the chances that we didn't take."

Has been very challenging, mentally and physically draining! However I notice that each day it gets better. Any pointers? I'm keeping track of my Fluid intake, taking my Vitamins, using breathing thingy (forgot the name) LOL. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Did any of you notice severe weakness during this time? "In the end we only regret the chances that we didn't take."

I'm two weeks out and I walk 1 1/2 miles every day. My legs hurt and I'm drained so as soon as I'm done I relax for a few hours to let my body regroup. "In the end we only regret the chances that we didn't take."

I just had a mini melt down myself! I once loved food and now I hate it (I'm at the purée stage). I felt today like "I WANT OUT". I cried so hard my eyes swole up. This is not just a physical change but a mental change. This forum is truly what people need. I cried and than clicked on my bariatric app. It's not easy but I'm sure we will all get there.

How much exercise were you able to do around week 2. Yesterday was 12 days post op and I hit the track to try to do 2-3 miles of walking. After 1 1/2 miles I couldn't walk anymore. My leg muscles hurt so bad!! Prior to surgery I could do 2 miles and now it just feels so tiring. Felt so bad that I couldn't push myself to at least the 2 mile mark. How did you do 2 weeks in? "In the end we only regret the chances that we didn't take."

Ok thanks everyone!!! I felt so bad that it was all I could do. I was so hard on myself yesterday so I thank all of you!!!! "In the end we only regret the chances that we didn't take."

Heidi So glad you are ok. Yes what you are experiencing is normal! It will get better but not overnight it all takes time. Each phase invokes new emotion. You will be able to take in more fluids but again it all takes time. The pain will subside. Give yourself time to heal both physically and emotionally. Each day is different from the next. One day I have a burst of energy the next I'm so tired I don't want to budge. No matter what remember your goal and continue to stay focused. We are all here if you need us. YOU GOT THIS!

I'm so sick of puréed foods! I have been super creative because I love to cook but..... I just want to stick a fork in my meat and really chew. I'm having one of those days, I'm sure this rainy NYC weather isn't helping. "In the end we only regret the chances that we didn't take."

Thank you @Kempermorris. I'm having a moment "In the end we only regret the chances that we didn't take."
