1 pass day so far.
I had surgery in early 2020 – not while in weight loss mode but less than a year in maintenance.
I had a total abdominal hysterectomy – you don’t realise how much you use those core muscles until you can’t!
Exercise was a very slow process – very gradual increase in walking, couldn’t lift any thing heavier than a coffee cup for weeks.
As far as nutrition goes, my biggest issue was having to depend on my boyfriend for all the shopping and cooking for a while. He can’t cook and has a very limited understanding of good nutrition. I did stock up beforehand on easy cook/ready meals, and gave him shopping lists of fruit and veg. I also stocked up on protein bars, high fibre bars etc.

April 10
Exercise: 15 minutes MommaStrong, 5 minutes stretching (hey, better than 0), 40 minutes walk
Tracking: Planned the day except for dinner, then did not track deviations or out to dinner
Calories: Certainly over, with going out to dinner, though I think I ordered pretty sensibly
I have lost track of pass days but I am certainly over.
I have been fortunate enough to not have surgery during weight loss. I do struggle with my autoimmune disease with occasional flares. I think the thing is to honestly do the best you can, and forgive yourself when the best you can do is not good enough to get the results you want.

pass days used .5 (hahah.. I made up half of my excess on Sun yesterday and will make the rest up today)
As far as surgery no. But definitely some injuries which limited my running and walking. I would say that your body uses more cals to heal than you think so make sure to give it enough nutrition post surgery while not over doing it. I noticed when I had the flu in 2018 that I expended a LOT more calories - my resting heart rate was 10 beats up for several weeks. So even though I was pretty much a zombie I was burning a lot of cals fighting the virus.4 -

✅✅✅ 2️⃣ pass days left 👌🏻
I had a hip replacement 9 months into my starting weight loss. I had lost about 45 lbs, and had been training so that I was as fit as possible, and I was back to almost normal about 3 weeks after the op.
I’ve had a few minor surgeries since but was only laid up for less than a week with those.3 -
Happy 1 yr anniversary @CarolAnnM2 and good luck on your recovery after your surgery. I had my gallbladder removed (emergency) Christmas 2020 - right in the thick of another round of rising Covid cases: hospitals were short-staffed and over capacity. All went well. I did okay on maintaining but then slowly I started to gain weight and by the end of April had regained to my starting weight (16 lbs regained). But that was bc I was binging. I finally had to get a book on self-sabotaging and work my way through that. Today I can say that area of my life is under control. I do need to work on portion control still but now that I'm off a particular med, I've noticed my appetite has diminished.
Apr 10: Logged, Exercised but ate over my calorie limit.

Surgeries
After Kidney transplant & an Arm/shoulder break surgery - scale zoomed up immediately post surgery.
knew from transplant that I should eat more protein & expect temporary weight gain (water).
It is very important not to diet post surgery. Your body needs 20-25% more calories to handle the increased energy needs of healing. I did diet the first 3 weeks & then was told not to until week 8.
They got me walking a lot of steps very soon after each surgery - even if I had to break it into 3 walks.
I did ALL PT exactly as prescribed, using the Durrell’s on Corfu &
Other shows to help
Me pass the 1-2 hours…
Good luck on your recovery.3 -
