So I needed help sitting down on the toilet and with cleaning myself. It was really hard for me at first. But my mother and sister were supportive. Or you can buy one of those bedside commodes. And yes since surgery I have lost 20 pounds. A lot of people are effected differently after surgery. One tip that helped was walking. After drinking I set a timer and I walk for 15 minutes. And I try and walk every 30 minutes. Keep moving is the goal. But only do what you can. And most importantly is to rest too. Our bodies are trying to adjust to a new way of life. So it’s a process but it is worth it
