One Week Post Op



Recommended Posts

Well today is my one week post op day and things are going well. I weighed today and I am down 6.2# from my weight the day of surgery so if you add in the 6 Fluid pounds I left the hospital with that is 12.2# since last Thursday. I feel really pretty good.

I need to get back on the elliptical today for the first time....don't know why I am so resistant to doing it but I need to get my big girl panties on and JUST DO IT. Don't see my surgeon until next Thursday so shakes and Clear Liquids it is. Getting a little (more than a little) tired of them after 3 weeks but I know it is important for healing.

So happy that this site is here....it helps a lot. Hope everyone has a great day.

hang in there Miz60 it gets so much better very soon.

If you have not discussed that elliptical with your surgeon you might just skip it till your follow up appt.

Just walk as much as you can everyday till you get released for more intensive workouts.

^^ agree! I wasn’t allowed to use my elliptical until after I saw my surgeon.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
