Three wks four days post Op
This is my first posting and just wanted to say that except for some minor problems (slow system and crick in my neck) I am doing fine. I have lost 20+ lbs and am returning to work tomorrow.
My supplements are easily taken, I've learned to chew them and don't have to rely on a pill crusher. The worst tasting is my blood pressure medication, I can't wait to get off those things.
I havn't had any diabetic meds since I came home from the hospital. My surgar was only 106 at bedtime last night. That's a first for me unless I was taking medication.
I feel better even though my loss isn't great, it's a loss. My back and hip don't hurt me too bad. I'm trying to build my activity level. After over ten years of being obese and not moving any more than I had to, I think I'm doing well. I'm up to 0.36 miles
Well.....got to go eat my supper, although I'm not hungry. I'm going to eat something.
Good luck all! P. Vice
Phyllis,
I had my surgery on 12/9 also It sounds like you are doing well. Congratulations on being off the diabetes meds. I am also diabetic and haven't taken any medication since the surgery. Isn't it great to see normal reading without taking any medication?
Good luck with returning to work tomorrow. I hope it goes well for you.
