Yeah insurance companies all have their hoops we need to jump through before they will allow us to finally get healthy after years of struggling. I’m so excited to be meeting all my surgery buddies ?

Hey y’all, I had my first initial consult in July and I have to do 6 nutrition appointments before surgery. Should be having surgery (RNY) in January as well.

46 yrs old, I live in Virginia and I will be having gastric bypass sometime in January

Me too lol

I’m the same way, I hate being in pictures and I dream of being 125 lbs. I’m nervous and scared about surgery but I just keep pushing forward to a fresh brand new me.

Hey y’all, so I’m reading over the findings from my EGD that was done this morning. It says I have a small hiatal hernia and that I have mild erosive gastritis. I don’t know anything about erosive gastritis, do y’all have any knowledge about this??? Also, I went into this procedure feeling fine and I woke up constantly sneezing and feeling like I have a cold. I have sneezed so much that my nose is now raw! Could that be a side affect of the anesthesia that they gave me? I just wish I could stop sneezing, lol.

Well here goes to checking off another box in this process. I am getting ready to have my EGD this morning. If only this was the big day so I could get it over with lol ?

Sending prayers for a speedy recovery.

You look beautiful!!! I’m so happy for you ??

Congratulations!!! You’re doing a awesome job!!! Can’t wait to join you

Hello everyone! I just finished my 2nd dietician class and I’m scheduled for my EGD on the 28th. I’m so excited and wish I could fast forward to the big day ?

I haven’t had my surgery yet but have taken Linzess in the past because the diet pills I was taking constipated me. Linzess did wonders but I’m wondering if it’s affect is different post- op

Congratulations ??? I am so happy for you!!!

Look great!!!

I definitely feel the closeness of my new found friends. Please know that I am here for all of you as well ?

Thank you Mikeyy, your response is so true!! I feel that I will still go through with the surgery, it just really got me so messed up seeing my friend in the hospital with such serious complications! I appreciate more than any of my words could ever express, the encouragement from all of you ?
