I Need A Gastric Bypass Surgery Buddy In Tennessee Or Georgia
I am from North Ga...Rome....had surgery Sept 26 2012You need depression medications it sounds to me. You need to learn to love yourself before others can love you. No one wants a broken person. I see a psychologist but you need a pschiatrist that can prescribe meds. You have made great advances with your weight loss ...please stop eating what you know is unhealthy. whatever you want to eat as far as snacks...place in water for 5 min if you still want to eat it go for it... Where do you live? a buddy or mentor whose had the same surgery sounds perfect for you. I am in Rome GA and would love a partner to walk and call to vent on my worst days. So hang in there and things will look up. You have come to far to turn the scales back. Your friend, GerryOk i requested friendship on the September to Remember FB See y'all there soon!I'm looking for a walking buddy, someone going through what i am in my area to go to support meetings with.....vent with.lolYes it seems if you take the pills prior to eating they help a lot. They may make you drowsy so be careful with that. God luck.your surgery date is same as mine.keep in touchI don't think i am added to the fb page yet. Its under james hendrix. Picture of him with dark brown hair and me with black hair. Close up face pictures. From Rome GA. Thanks I'd someone will please add me to fb or send me the name of the page in there and i will request friendship. !What is your Ebay name? I'm fitting 18s nicely.I didn't have a bowl movement for almost two weeks and now only every two to three days. The swelling for me being 3 weeks post is just now going down. I started in 24s and now wear 18s comfortably. I still have pain after eating or drinking but not as bad. Currently working out on a treadmill while in hotel with bf working out of town. Its getting easier. I had lost 29 lbs before coming to Indiana, no scales now so not sure what i have lost but i do 4 miles a day so i know i have lost more.hmmm not sure how to add my name lol gerryannc surgery sept26 name Gerry maybe someone can add me please to the september membersI cant even stand food anymore or drinking ....i went for a walk today and had to call my neighbor to come pick me up, i was in so much pain in my stomach, couldnt make it home. Everything seems to upset my stomach, even water. Just hope this to will pass. Thanks luvlife for the advice.I am so tired of pureed food. UGGGGGGGGGGG And only in my second week of post op. I use the magic bullet for everything except like cottage cheese. And add unjury to it so i can try and get atleast some protein a day. HOW DO YOU GET 75 GRAMS OF PROTEIN A DAY...ANYONE...I was told to eat every 3-4 hours no more than 4 oz for 5-6 feedings. I just read the side of items and it says one gram of protein per serving. Cant seem to eat what is required . And hear hair falling out in the next couple of months will be the punishment... SighsssssI agree.....why would you want to start up again? Its like us that gave up drinking...we dont like it but its Drs orders. But smoking like joyfulinga said its one of the unhealthest habits there is thats legal. So be strong....if you can have this surgery and give up as much as you have with it...you can deny smoking. Be strong!Well i feel much better today. i am taking very little sips thanks to some great advice and realizing i dont have to eat the four ounces with each meal right now. Just eat what I can....again great advice. I do miss those days I could gulp my drink. I stay so thirsty all the time. I know i have to play catch up with my hydration. Thanks for all the advice! I feel like a new person today.
