2 weeks after surgery



Recommended Posts

I just had my surgery on March 11th and I can't make the support groups that my surgeon recommended because my kids have evening activities. Does anybody have any recommendations for me?

Also, on a side note, today is the first day I get to go back to the gym, any ideas on exercises I can do? They still told me to not do anything that involves the stomach, core muscles or back for 2 more weeks.

Hello Debi,

My name is Dany and I belong to a support group on Facebook. It is call Real Support for Real People. It's a small group and was recently created. The group was created because my friends and I belong to a larger group but did not get the support we needed. People join support groups for guidance, insight, and support from the veterans because we have no idea what to expect from the other side and that is what we are about. What I received from the other group was assumption, doubt, and criticism, and that is one thing that we do not want in our new group. We are here to help each other out through this and to give insight. If you need to vent, we are there, if you are having a problem, we will help you to figure it out, and if you are happy and want to share, then we want to hear about it. If you are interested, contact me.

I have notice on here the veterans are A Holes. You would think they would be happier. I guess they have more problems than just weight.

      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.

      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.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
