Anyone ever lift too much early out and have problems?



Recommended Posts

Yesterday, my 65# son had fallen (Mellodramaticly) and wanted me to help him up and of course decides that Mom is a jungle gym...So I get him off me and tell him Yet again that I'm not allowed to pick him up. So I had some random pains yesterday and today my stomach is achy and not interested in food and I have a jabbing headache.. I'm not sure if the way I feel to day is related to my moment of recklessness yesterday. Anyone have any experience lifting too much early out?

I have done more things that require lifting over the past two days than I have since surgery. I have a 2 yr old so I know how it is that sometimes you don't have much of a choice. Yesterday I had a lot of energy and the baby got a little rambunctious with the play and got on my back like a horsey. Today I went grocery shopping and brought in more groceries than I have in a long time. I have bronchitis so I am coughing a LOT. I am really sore in my midsection and much more tired than I have been in a couple of weeks.

I don't think I have damaged anything. I am able to eat and drink but I have a lot of "bathroom issues" today. I wonder if the movement/exercise got the digestive system going? I figure the soreness is just some exercise

HDub,

Are you on antibiotics for the bronchitis? I cannot take any kind of pennicilin or derivative. All antibiotics put me in the bathroom. I always have to take a probiotic for about three weeks afterwards.

I hope you are feeling better soon!!!!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
