Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.
How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

2 Weeks Post Op...Beach Walking for Exercise
The first week was rough, I didn't respond well to the anesthesia so I couldn't drink anything by mouth, nor could I go home. 4 days in the hospital on fluids through IV.
I was able to walk the 1st day, just not as long because I was nauseous. I went back to work this week and minus taking a break when necessary, I'm walking at a pace to sweat and increase my heart rate.
I seem to be losing about a pound a day, 16lb loss so far. The hardest thing is gettingv required protein and water.

I'm going into surgey in 10 mins and I'm still not excited
Whew, thanks to my support I'm ok.
5 Days til surgery...I had a meltdown today
Today I realized I'm less than a week away. I've completely gone to water and a coffee alternative, more protein than I've ever had daily. After 2 weeks of nearly 80 ozs of water daily and walking daily today I have a meltdown. Isopure now gets on my nerves, I almost cried I wanted soda and lemon pepper wings so bad. I craved all things salty and sweet (cycle just ended,so no reason to crave). I drove to the McDonald's drive through then reversed out of the line before ordering and went home. In addition to all my healthy choices, today I ate fritos, M&Ms and a pop tart. It wasn't until I realized I had to actually leave the house to get anymore junk I almost cried. All of a sudden it hit me, I'm nervous again and although I don't think I've ever had an anxiety attack, I think today I was pretty close.
I want to go to the gym, I'm running up and down my stairs, I want to jog and physically almost none of these things are possible (effectively)right now because I'm so out of shape. Also, did I mention the same inner conversations of why did I let it get this far have started again? I'm not sure if this is normal, but I'm reaching out to the group to say HELP! I am a part of a Healthy Living group and all they do is post how they naturally became fit, their determination etc etc. Although their determination and drive is motivating, but it's also very intimidating. Can someone tell me why I'm feeling this way?
Okay, tomorrow is another kitchen sweep of all things not conducive to my health. I will continue my protein and water intake and trust this process. I'm just venting to people I think may understand what I'm going through.
