I'm a month and 4 days post op and overall I feel pretty well. I do still get tired easily but I know that will get better as time goes by. There's a reason that they will pay me disability for 6 weeks!I am now 218 pounds and I've lost 2" all around! Not too shabby.
I am trying to be more active. I have been walking and now I am going to start to water aerobics. I have my second followup appointment on August 8th. I am expecting to get the OK to start going to the gym. I need to use my exercise band more.
I haven't found any protein I can drink straight yet. Unflavored works pretty well mixed in to foods. I haven't had too much trouble getting my protein in from real food though. I need to drink more fluids though, I'm having trouble getting 64 oz. That could be affecting my weight loss, plus I do not want to get a kidney stone...OUCH!
It is nice to feel the difference in the way my clothes fit. I can now fit in to shorts I have not worn for 2 years!
I still am so happy that I decided to get WLS. I have no regrets!
