Hey...how are you doing? My gastric bypass surgery was December 4th. I was also experiencing some “sads” the first 2 weeks. I slept at night, took my daughter to school then climbed back in bed for several more hours. I’m feeling a lot better as I approach week 3! I’m able to expand my intake and I’m tolerating everything well. I’m soooo afraid of Hair loss. I had cancer/chemo in 2014 and my hair came back but it’s already quite thin. That’s a huge concern for me. I’m taking the Celebrate brand of chewable vitamins. I’m also taking daily Biotin. I space my Vitamins out to hopefully aid in absorption. I hope you’re better day by day! Merry Christmas! 🎄

Hard as in ??? LOL
I'll assume you mean difficult.

December 4th for me....just got my date a couple hours ago! I've decided to go with the bypass (praying I made the right decision). Good luck to all December 2018 WLS peeps!

I feel like I've been on a fast-track. Insurance approved day after 4 hour seminar, met with surgeon, passed 2 hour psych eval, met with anesthesia, meet with dietitian/exercise therapist tomorrow which is just once then I can meet the surgeon again to set the date and get details re: my pre-op diet! I'm so excited I could seriously scream! Even though I could have surgery in November, I think I'll wait until December due to the fact it's better for my job. So, hopefully I'll be a December groupie. I'm still undecided re: sleeve/bypass. I keep changing my darn mind. I'll make a decision, leaning towards bypass today LOL.

Good luck...positive vibes to ALL

I just left my surgeon's office. I am officially scheduled for December 4th!!! I'm so excited. I've decided to go with the bypass and finally feel confident with my decision because I struggled between the sleeve vs. bypass. wishing you an amazing journey. Happy Holidays to us!

Please tell me you're kidding! I had cancer 4 years ago and my hair grew back sooo thin as it is. I was thinking as long as I keep up with my Protein and take my vits I'll be good....no?

Dating is haaaaaard.

Just give us a "base" man, we can fill in the blanks.

I've got a 10 year old daughter and I've been single for......10.5 years! Honestly dating and "cardio" have been on my mind a lot more since my decision to have WLS. December 4th is my surgery which also happens to be my birthday (did that on purpose)! I'd so love to meet a Mr. Wonderful but I'm worried my expectations are too high...like unrealistically high. I'd try the online dating thing but with caution. Hoping to be dating in less than a year maybe???

That is awesome! I’m waiting on insurance to approve and it’s nerve-wracking! Do you have to do the clear liquid diet 2 weeks prior? If so, you’ll be starting that during Thanksgiving right? That sucks!

Ok, but inquiring minds and all and in the spirit of observation, speculating, then writing about it...how far did you get in the cardio pursuit before friend-zoning?
