Hiiii everyone!!! Wife and mom of 2 year old here. 25 years old,BMI 50 AND I'M 5'6. before today I was really debating the band and rny. After my visit with the surgeon today he really put it into perspective for me and Ive finally decided for the bypass. A part of me is very terrified and the sleeve seems way to drastic. My biggest fear is the healing process (my c section was bad) I also got Bels palsy after delivery on the left side of my face. Thank God it only lasted for 2 months. I'm just scared of internal bleeding and the staples. This app is great and u all are super supportive!!! My last dietitian appt is Sep 5th then pre-op is Sept 17th!!!! I just have a huge fear of "everything coming undone inside of me" I guess it sounds crazy but I'm def ready to make the changes for a healthier me.

Thx Jenn!! One baby is enough for me LOL its like after I had her the weight jjust stuck to me!!! I do 45 min of cardio and I've only lost about 14 pounds in the last 3 months

Girl I feel your pain! Surgery next month and I'm 311 at 25 years old. After I had my daughter she is 2 now its been such a struggle to burn the fat. Just remember its an entire change if lifestyle and ur not the only one out there. Knowing u have to change is the first step"! Good Luck I'm here if u wanna chat

Y isn't free an option? ? In the state of CT it's free if you have HuskyA

Hi!! This site is great! I've completed all my pre ops cardio test next Tue then last dietitan appt is September 5th. Anyone else in CT with Medicare?? They require 6 months consecutive dietician appointments but never specified how much or if we have to lose before surgery. Down 13 pounds so far. Anyone else have insight on this?? I doubt getting denied I feel like God has gotten me this far and its a sign to make it to the end thx for any input"!

Wow good for you!!! How great your husband is willing to help!!! I've got a lot of negative feedback from family and co workers but we have to remember its for yourself and kids (I have a daughter) and want to be fit and active for her too!!! It will be great whatever u decide

Hey Christi good luck to you!!! I too have also been big all my life!! Before I had my daughter I lost 55 pounds on My own eating right and gym twice a day. My daughter just turned 2 and Sept 5th is my last dietitian appt. I AM TERRIFIED out of my mind but I know its the right thing to do. My husband is.somewhat onboard and my surgeon is pushing me towards sleeve or bypass. My heart tells me band tho. Anyway new here if u wanna talk ill update u on my journey. Good luck follow ur heart!!!
