Are you having VSG or RNY? And how long are you taking FMLA for? My date is Sep 20 and i got my FMLA papers printed, ill take it to my surgeon on my last appt. Im having RNY, im thinking 4 weeks is ok? Ive been reading the threads here and im finding out the recovery is slow and consuming, i dont know what to decide. Ive never taken FMLA, lol Sent from my SM-G973U using BariatricPal mobile app

i had the same feeling and spent a week depressed, i spoke to my dietician about it and she said, thats called "the last supper mentality" and we cant think like that cause itll birth depression after surgery. She said we (me and you and everyone who has this procedure ) will still be able to eat what we like, EXCEPT in smaller quantities.

How are you doing since you're surgery? How was the first few days? The pain? Sent from my SM-G973U using BariatricPal mobile app

wow, i have family in Palm Beach County, im in N Ft Myers. My date is Sep 20 Sent from my SM-G973U using BariatricPal mobile app

wow!! thank you for being so detailed. My date is Sep 20, and im so scared of this pain you talked about. Im having Gastric Bypass. Also another thing that really concerns me, is; how much time did you take off work? Im going to submit FMLA paperwork but im guessing 4 weeks? I read all your pages and your recovery has been long, many surprises along the way, so im wondering if 4 weeks isnt enough? I work at home , but very long hours like 11hrs a day sedentary. Please keep updating, what vitamins are you taking? Sent from my SM-G973U using BariatricPal mobile app

It was a voice mail, but i want to know what is the rush, it really caught me off guard, it scared me Sent from my SM-G973U using BariatricPal mobile app

oh wow, you answered a question i am terrified to ask. You said you stopped half way cause it was too much! I feel that way!! The classes, the explanation of how i will feel afterwards, the constant need to keep up with meeting my protein goals, it scared me so much i was depressed and feeling like that again. I still want the surgery but i dont know what to do. I have my pulmonologist appt on the 12th and 3 more nutrionist appt. i am overwhelmed [emoji17] Sent from my SM-G973U using BariatricPal mobile app
