Hey there,

I am from northern Alberta, looking for some other Alberta ladies to join.

I am still pre-op but that will change in 18 days! I am very excited but apprehensive all at the same time.

Hi! I'm from Calgary, although I just had sleeve surgery a week ago in Medicine Hat. I'd love to cultivate a good support group, online or in person.

I'm in Hinton. My sleeve was May 14/14.

Be well during your surgery. Try to get up and walk if your able. It helps get the gas out. Take the pain meds - it helps

Hi all,

I'm from just outside of Edmonton and would love to chat with some of you. I have not made the decision for sure weather or not to do this. I have struggled for 35 years to lose and maintain but always gain back and more. If I continue this way I know I will suffer the consequences soon. I don't qualify for surgery in alberta because I'm not heavy enough so I'm considering going to Mexico. I'd love to hear more from people who have actually gone to Mexico and your experience.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
