I read that a body pillow can really help. Can anyone go to Bed, Bath & Beyond for you?

Ok what secret Facebook group??!!

I visited one of our friends from here! She got sleeved yesterday at 130 pm mountain and is doing GREAT! No pain and walking and sitting up and chatting. She said she is just tired. It sure made me feel better about my 12/28 surgery! The stitches were so much smaller than I thought. She got to go home today at 4 pm.

December 28th!

I loved reading this post and the replies! I don't want people to say anything except for my closest friends. It is embarrassing, to me, to have gotten to this point. I am hoping that my mind will change. But now I just don't want to say I have 100 lbs to loose. That is horrifying to me to even write that number. The people I know, for the most part, have 10 lbs MAYBE to lose. I am not looking forward to all the questions. A simple...you look nice will be enough!!

I am a girl looking to meet other woman either who have had surgery or who are having surgery!

You all are so great to share! I copied and pasted from here and my list is huge! 12/28....fingers crossed!

Boy have I tried some seriously disgusting protein shakes!

Hey everyone! I was referred to this site by a girl I met in our 6 months of mandatory classes. She said such great things about this site that I joined last night and already purchased from the store. My last mandatory class is 12/4. I get submitted for approval 12/6. My surgery is already scheduled for 12/28 at 7:30 am. My 7 day liquid only diet is going on over Christmas! Am I scared? Sort of...but not terrified. Do I wish the surgery would hurry up and get done? Oh yeah...so done with the waiting. I will be reading as much as I can from everyone and I thank you all for your sharing. It helps so many of us!

I ordered the book from the store here but in pdf form. Dora anyone know how I get the pdf copy?? Thank you!

I finished my last class and hope to hear about getting my approval! Scheduled already just in case! ! Did anyone else practice the pre op liquid diet?

Hello all! I am still trying to figure out how this site works. I had my last 6 month required class on Friday. I am scheduled for surgery on 12/28 if everything is approved. I am starting to practice the pre op liquid diet...just to see how bad it is! Best of luck to us all!

InnerSurfGirl, Thank you! We are very close in age!

Songsmith, I hope to find the December group link! My last class is 12/4. I am getting nervous and excited! And scared, terrified, freaking out then thinking of everything I want to do AFTER!!

I am learning the navigation of this site from my cell. I am finding there are some unusual ways to do things! I am so excited to be here since I want to be educated, safe and successful! I would REALLY appreciate a link to the December group!! I didn't find it. Right now I feel like the Facebook cartoon I saw last week...like a busted tube of biscuits!

I could have written your post. You are not alone. I have been struggling with a lot of the issues you wrote about. I look forward to reading the replies!
