1 week post op

How long did it take to get your strength back and start doing things after surgery? I have lost 20 lbs as of today and am still pretty sore, stiches come out next Wed. Anyone have any food suggestions? I started my puree foods yesterday. Thanks so much!

Hi katrina, Congratulations on your weightloss so far!!! It took me about 2-4 weeks to get my energy back. I still napped in the afternoon a lot for that first month because doing little things would make me so tired, but now at a little more than a year out I have more than enough energy. I can barely sit still sometimes. It's wonderful I remember back when i was 356 and I could barely move, so obviously I wouldn't trade those few weeks of feeling less than myself for anything. U will have more energy than u know what to do with soon enough Good luck to you and if you ever have any questions for me please feel free to email me directly! Hugs, Sara 356/232/175
