Can others chime in as to whether you tried to actually lose weight before surgery?
I know exercise is good, but am not sure about weight loss itself.
I am probably 15 lbs. over what I want to be, but with expected weight loss post-surgery, don't know if I should go for it now or not.
One doctor told me not to bother because he wouldn't want me to potentially jeopardize my nutritional intake with weight-loss efforts.
But, does it help with recovery if you weigh less (less to carry)? On the other hand, can it be a problem with too much weight loss after surgery?
Thanks!!!
