How To Manage Work After Rny?



Recommended Posts

My Surgi-vacation is over after today!!! I'm little worried about how things are going to go in the working environment. There's a lot to keep up with at the beginning of my journey as far as the Vitamins Calcium, meds, meals, Protein and getting all your fluids. Does anyone ever get out of whack as far as getting all your nutritional needs, meds,fluids and protein down when you are at work? I've done great at home, but it seems like it's a full-time job just to keep up with everything. So I'm a little nervous about adding my real job into this mix. I am an MRI technologist, and we don't normally get scheduled breaks or even lunch for that matter. We normally try to just eat whenever we can if there's a small break.

It's been an adjustment for me going back to work. Remembering to eat enough and get in my fluids. I'm much better about it at home for sure, but after two Weeks, i'm doing pretty good. Packing small containers of high Protein things has been my focus and Protein Bars help when I can't get to a fridge or microwave. Luna bars even come in mini size, perfect pouch size. I also bring a Water bottle full of ice Water so I can measure my intake. Good luck on your return, you will do great.

I went back to work after 1 week. I made my lunch the night before with 1/4 cup meals of high Protein (or whatever you can have). I use tuna or chicken salad or Beans. cheese stiches are great and Greek yogurt.

I also fill a 32oz bottle half way up with Water then add unflavored Protein powder and a crystal lite packet. Then I put it on its side in the freezer over night. In the morning I fill it up the rest of the way with Water and add a little Mio. It will unthaw in a few hours. But I keep shaking it so it stays cold and slushy. It is 21 grams of Protein and 32 oz of fluid!

I do a Protein Shake for a quick Breakfast and made a bunch of frozen lunches in tiny containers like chilli, crab cakes, etc. go to theworldaccordingtoeggface.com and search bites. They are very easy to make ahead and freeze for grab and go! I keep a water bottle with me everywhere at work to sip sip sip all day. Its almost easier now that in working bc all the meals are premade and easy.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

      Lost my Pup last month and struggled really hard for that first month. Stopped tracking intake and slid into old habits here and there. Also quit working out. Can't walk in the neighborhood because of all of the memories we shared. Losing my Pup is the most heartbreaking thing I've ever been through. My Pup was my world 💔
      Talked to my doc during my one year followup and they were not worried about my current status. They know, and I know, that I will get back on track.
