PostOp - 2 Weeks

[byron1661 2]

I'm Ross and 2 weeks post op. My bariatric sleeve surgery was at the Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in Bethesda, Maryland. I have dropped weight, as expected. However, my story is that I have not experienced any surgery side affects. Based on pre-op discussions, support groups and forums, I expected and prepared for the worse. Yet, I was walking immediately after surgery. Minimal pain. No gas. No acid reflux. I have had simply weight loss. My overall concern, in addition to attaining my healthy goal weight, is to maintain the the proper amount of Protein, Vitamin, Calcium etc... in my meal plan and supplements. I'm big on NSVs because I expect to stall. I'm looking forward to attaining and maintaining my ultimate healthy weight.

hi! Sounds to me like you really have your head on straight. It's all about the NSV's! I can't wait for mine! Welcome to BP!! Lots of good folks here, great support group. I have to wait till January to submit for approval, but I've done my "hoop jumping" in preparation for it. So I hope mine is approved fairly quickly. I hope I have a story like yours!
