**** Happy To Mentor/buddy For Anyone****



Recommended Posts

See so many new postings going up looking for mentors and support from all over states. I live in New York, and border Connecticut. If anyone from either one are seeking a mentor, I'm always here to help out. Goes the same for anyone from any state. I've helped a few people so far, from all over.. please don't limit yourselves. My name is Steve, I only bite upon requests :-P feel free to pick my two functional brain cells remaining ,they enjoy the stimulus. ..

Would love u to be my mentor Steve. I live in Australia , when I got my band done there was no support, u were expected to work it out on your own. Operation done, now go off and sort yourself out. It's taken me about a year and a half to work out exactly how the band works. I lost weight then tried to be smart and went too tight and ending up just eating chocolate and Protein Drinks and of course put a lot of weight back on. I was so under nourished. Had no energy, now I think I'm back on track and can eat small pieces of meat, but still fighting that sugar addiction. So hard, and trying to give up smoking which makes me want more sugar!!!! Would love some positive advice.

G'day Tina...

Thought I'd give my Aussie accent a whirl. ..lol. ..so let's see... when did you have it done? My personal opinion, why would you put a tool into somebody and not tell them how to use it? May as well given a loaded gun to a kid and said here play with this. o_O. Well I can tell you from personal experience, can't quit smoking and diet at same time. One the withdrawal will make you attack sugar more, hence no loss. And the stress will make your cravings worse.. do you know the amount of c.c.' s band holds, and amount in presently?

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
