Maybe getting up and just slowly walking up and down the hallways in the hotel would help.. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Day 4/5 was when everything started going well for me. The pain was so much more bearable, I was moving around all on my own. I'm 12 days post op and I can tell you.. I feel great!! I see changes in my face and in my body and it's only been 12 days. Some days I feel like crap because I'm DYING to eat normal food. It's rough, it's really really rough. liquid diet is no joke. I've cried. It feels like torture at times and I barely started my journey. But you know what, seeing the changes already and knowing what is to come, I can't just sit around a sulk about it. It was my decision, now I need to work hard to reach my goal. You will feel better, trust and believe!! Stay strong!! ❤️❤️ Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Ps.. walking walking walking does wonders!!! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Ella!! Yes! I was totally going back and forth up until the morning of my surgery as well!! I haven't weighed myself just yet, my two week post op appt is next Monday which will be my first weight check since surgery. I'm eager to see how much I've lost! It's only been one week and I can see a difference and changes in my face and my body already!! I've had feeling of regret a few times now but once my friend introduced me to this app, I can't tell you how much more motivated and helpful it has been!!

Very normal!!! I felt the same way, anxiety and a mix of emotional (as well as emotional) before my surgery! I am one week and a day post op! And believe me, the emotionalness sticks around even after surgery. I've found the first week to be EXTREMELY difficult but by the 4/5 day I couldn't believe how quickly I started feeling better!! Still struggling with anxiety after surgery. Although I feel full and not hungry most of the day, it's been very difficult to be around food and even watching commercials of food!! it's been a loooong rough journey but it's all worth it in the end!! (So I'm told by a very good friend of mine who had the gastric bypass). I'm just beginning my journey and today was one of the most emotional/difficult days I've had so far. I wish you luck and sending prayers for a quick recovery after surgery! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
