Surgery on 1/12/15 and looking for a buddies and a mentors!



Recommended Posts

Here's a little information about me!

(I meant a mentor, typo. Sorry)

My name is Nadia.I'm 18, I live in Pennsylvania and my surgeon is Dr Teasun Moon of Wimber,Pa. I've been overweight from early childhood to now. My starting weight was 282 and I'm now down to 265.5. I start my liquid diet on December 29! If your on a similar time frame, I'd love to talk to you and share our experiences. Some of my other interests are fashion, astrology, make up and Classic rock. I also love to read, cook and do yoga.

My only requirement for my bypass buddy is that they be committed to getting healthy. I'm doing this to live longer and be healthier but I'm also doing it in honor of my mother, she passed away in 2011 due to a heart attack related to morbid obesity. I'd also prefer someone that would like to communicate via other mediums (Facebook,Skype,text) as well as this one!

Hi Princess, My surgery is January 5th, 2015. I've been waiting to have this surgery for a very long time. I too would like to have a special buddy going thru this. I'm old enough to be your mother but I'm very young at heart. Once I get past the surgery, watch out world! I'm on Facebook, My Fitness Pal, Fitbit and have no problem texting. I'm sorry I didn't see your post sooner or I would have gladly replied. I'm extremely motivated and committed to getting back to a healthier lifestyle. Let me know if you are interested! Check out my blog, too.

Hi Princess and Sassy, I had gastric on Jan.5 this year. I need all the help I can get. I would like for you to add me as a friend and buddy. Together we can do this! I also am on Facebook and MyFitnessPal. I need advice on how many calories a day I should consume, how much food at one time. I am exercising, walking. Would really like to have you as mentors and buddies

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
