I'm in Jackson, Tn. Right between Memphis and Nashville. I had my surgery at Gateway Medical Center in Clarksville 4/30/12 by Dr Crystal Twynham.

You are certainly NOT the only fat person in Tn! Lol

There are actually several TN. sleepers on this forum. There is another thread, I think it's got Nashville in the title. I live in Missouri right now, but I'm from the 'boro. Mom & most of her side of the family still live here.

I was one of the ones from the 28th. I am first on the 2nd. It just really needs to happen this time. I don't think I can handle another last minute call.

Me eighter girl, I was already off work for my fmla and I had to go back to work and redo all my paper work again. That's crazy how they did us. So I be there surgery right after u. That's amazing. What's the odds of there only being 3 of us that day with that dr and we find each other. Maybe we can walk the halls or some thing together after surgery. Lol hope ur surgey as wellas the rest of ours is great. How if u don't mind me asking, how much do u weigh and what is ur goal weight? I'm 298 and I want to be 150.

Before I had a small break down. After surgery walking the halls would be great and I weigh 290 & my long term goal is 150. So with all similarities it would be great to keep in communications with u.

Yea well I had ask them to replace my shake mix cuz it was so high and she told me she would ask him about it and let me know but she never called me again so I just went and got it myself. They said I only have to do 7 days of Protein Shakes this time is that what they told u? I'm gonna start them wed. Not looking forward to it at all. I live in Fayetteville T.N so its a 2 hr drive to lebanon for me. I wasted a lot of gas going back and forth for pre op and stuff to. Speaking of which have they called you for your pre op over the phone this time yet? They said they would call so I didn't have to go way back up there again but they havnt yet?

Tracey told me to start mine Sunday. So I guess I'm back on them as of tomorrow. Maybe u could get them to mail u a bag. They also said I would have pre-op over the phone this time but I haven't got it yet. I'm still nervous to actually plan this new date but I will be ready. As much as I have gone to their office & I live 10 minutes from there I couldn't imagine a 2 hour drive that often.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
