I am back to work today! :(



Recommended Posts

Today is my first day back at work. I am 12 days out of surgery and I feel good. Had my Vitamins and my Protein Shake. No one here at work know that I got banded so I have been getting a few looks on what I ate for Breakfast and some have told me I look thinner. And of course some are talking behind my back lol! Only thing I am dealing with today is that I am still feeling tired and my stomach is rumbling a lot!

I'm choosing not to tell anyone at work either. I had already been dropping g hints like "think I might try Atkins diet" that way when I'm drinking Protein Shakes it won't look so funny

Yea, well I told them prior to surgery that I was trying to eat healthier and started the shakes 2 weeks prior so I kinda did the same thing. Only one girl at work knows I did it and that's because she got the sleeve a year ago. So she can sort of relate to me.

I told no one at work...the good thing about the band is that the progress is not all-of-a-sudden, so my coworkers just assume I'm workin out and eating less (which is the truth!)

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
