I'm doing very well I think. Getting my Water and my Protein in. My biggest problem is that I am a lazy person and I have a hard time making myself go out and walk like I am supposed to. But I'm trying. How has your recovery been? -

I had surgery Nov 7 and went home the next day. The only things I brought was my phone, my Kindle, a toothbrush and toothpaste, hairbrush, lip balm, biotene spray and a change of underwear. I wore the same clothes home that I wore to the hospital. -

Had my preop visit with my surgeon today. I've lost 10lbs since my last visit so I don't have to lose any more weight prior to surgery. But I'm sure I will because I still have to do the preop diet. Good luck to all of you having to do all liquid diets, I know that must be tough. I'm less nervous and more excited now that it's getting closer to the 7th. -

Hi healthychange32, What kind of preop diet do you have? Mine is 2 protein shakes a day and a high protein low carb dinner. I'm supposed to lose 8-12lbs prior to surgery. -

Had preop testing today. Preop office visit with my surgeon next week. Looks like this is really going to happen. -

Hi everyone, My surgery is scheduled for November 7. It took a while to get everything done before I could get surgery scheduled, but now that I have a date I'm starting to get nervous. Anybody else? -

Hello, I'm 51 and my starting weight is 374lbs. I am scheduled for surgery on 11/7. My biggest worry right now is recovery time. I'm having to take unpaid leave for the surgery, so the sooner I can go back to work, the better. My surgeon recommends 3 weeks off work, but says I may be able to go back in 2 weeks if I can guarantee him that I won't be doing any pulling, pushing or lifting. For those that have had surgery already, how long were you out of work afterwards?
