Weight Loss Surgery Directory

    Walked 1.55 Miles (1 Week Post-Op) GGrreeaatt!

    OK! So I had RYN on 6/12 and everything went GREAT! My only discomfort was the severe pain from gas after surgery. I thought Jason was stabbing me in my stomach. Once that pain was under control I was good. I went home the next day feeling fine. As like everyone else, I was on liquids (only). I was walking going to store etc. I went to my 1wk pre-op and my surgeon said I was doing excellent. He put me soft foods (thank God) so tired of protein shakes. Tolerated the soft seafood last night very well and soft scrambled egg this morning. Also got in 2 cups of water thus far. The big highlight was I was able to walk 1.55 miles in about 30min. That is AWESOME having had major surgery a week ago. I give all thanks to God. BTW my doctor release me to exercise. The funny thing is I could easily walk 3 miles before surgery, but I know I will work up to that. All is well and thanking GOD. BTW over all weight loss is around 21lbs. (Surgeon said I am on track).

     Congrats. I hope to follow in your footsteps after my surgery (not until Sept/Oct). You sound like you are doing all the things you should be. Excellent job on the 21 lbs gone already. 

    Thank you! It is so wonderful to be on this side of surgery. I also thank God for a 2nd chance and opportunity.
