Three weeks post op VSG

2025/1/30 Edited to

... Read moreThree weeks post-op from Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy (VSG) marks a significant milestone in my weight loss journey. After starting at 285 lbs at surgery day, I have now reached 263.6 lbs, dropping 21.4 lbs in just three weeks. This journey began with a pre-op weight of 296 lbs, illustrating a total weight loss of 32.4 lbs since New Year’s. For those considering VSG, it’s essential to understand the commitment it takes, as well as the lifestyle changes required to maintain weight loss success. In addition to tracking my weekly weigh-ins, I focused on adapting my diet to fit my new lifestyle. Post-surgery, it’s crucial to follow a nutritious meal plan—lean proteins, vegetables, and plenty of hydration are key components. I also found it helpful to engage in online communities such as #vsgjourney and #gastricsleevesurgery for support and motivation. Sharing experiences with others on similar journeys keeps me inspired and informed. In the coming weeks, I hope to continue documenting my progress while providing insights and tips for anyone considering or undergoing VSG surgery.

Post-Op Hysterectomy Recovery
Yes — even at 12 weeks post-op hysterectomy, your body is still in a deep integration and repair phase, even if you’re “cleared” medically. Support should now focus on continuous healing — not pushing or rushing. #loveangleag #hysterectomy #posthysterectomy #healing
