enjoyinglife 313 Posted November 24, 2013 Hi, I am soon to be 8 weeks post-op RNY, and I have to tell you no two days have been the same for me. From what I have read on this site and others it takes time to feel better. I had family staying with me for the first 2 weeks and I believe that really helped me out. My co-workers all signed a card, put some money in it, and mailed it to me. Yesterday I tried for the first time a Luna bar and I ate half of it without any adverse effects. I swim two days a week and just started hitting the weights again. Mentally I feel great. So, it takes time. Gather up some supportive friends and family, think positive, and before you know it you be hitting your stride and feeling good. Take care, best of luck, and congrats on your surgery.

LindsJ83 56 Posted November 24, 2013 Hi Butterfly - I am going through what you are going through. I'm two days post-op and am supposed to be released today. Stomach wise I feel pretty good, still sore and taking my time with liquids. The thing I'm struggling with is my shoulders and middle of my back. They are SO sore I can't believe it...I would love to take a hot shower. Haven't been able to since Friday morning. You aren't alone, trust me!! We will get through this together!!
