Hi everyone, my name is Jessica and I just had surgery on June 30th. I am 31 and have 4 children. I weighed 244.5 the day of surgery and am wanting to get down to a healthy weight. My father passed away last year at 57 from heart disease related to his diabetes and it scared me to think of my genetic risks. I had gestational diabetes with my last pregnancy and was able to get rid of it with a 40lb weight loss but haven't been able to lose more. I am hopeful that the surgery will help me live a longer happier life but I also have fears about it. I am hoping to gain a friend on here that has experienced surgery around the same time as me so that I have a supportive buddy to talk to.

I just had surgery on the 30th and this is my first day posting to any forums. I had the gastric sleeve. Hoping to find some encouraging friends that can relate to what I am going through

Thanks! I'll give it a shot

I had surgery on Tuesday and am not hungry but have horrible headache
