Text Buddy For Pre Op Weight Loss... Your In Your Late 20's- Early30's And Female!

Hello,

I realize there is a mentor area, but I want to find someone who is pre-op. This way we are nutritionally similar.

ME:

5'5"

305

30 years old

Mother, wife and student

Need to loose 20 before surgery- not on a liquid diet.

I will have my surgery nov-jan, not sure yet

Live on the west coast

looking for someone who will text randomly daily to find out if I am logging on MFP. I do best when logging, but lately I don't like documenting. I also know that I DO NOT want to let others down.

You:

female

late 20's-early 30's

working on weight loss

pre-op

Have something I can help keep you accountable with? (if you want, I would love to reciprocate)

I would love to learn a little about you. Also, feel free to ask any questions you have about me. Lets help each other out!

I can't wait to hear from you! :)

Best,

Sannah

Hello!

Pleasure to meet you!! Your surgery is soon! Where do you live? Curious what our time difference is like? I am in Oregon. Sounds like we have some things in common!

Best,

Sannah

I'm in Washington state...yes we could almost be twins lol

With my insurance I started out with a 3 month supervised diet (I failed it miserably)...I was waiting to see about insurance approval and that went thru last week...so my date is the 30th...I have blood work on Friday if my primary care doc can squeeze me in and endoscopy next Thursday...I don't want to be knocked out since I have to work later...so its numbing spray for me lol

Hey there. I too am post op. at the beginning of my journey. I have my surgeon consultation the end of August. Hoping all will go through and I can have this done by the end of the year.

I'm in IL, 30ish, married with a child :). I'm so excited about doing this! I finally see light at the end of the tunnel.

Hi! I'm 29 and I'm scheduled for Aug 27th. I'm 260# and 5'6" I am also looking for someone to help me through this life changing process!

Hi

I will be 32 Thursday

5'7" 236 lbs

Married for year and half

Two kids (boys 9&10)

I'm currently on 3 month diet required by ins. It sounds dumb but during this 3 month diet I really need to maintain because insurance won't cover if I don't. However I am looking for encouragement because I get impatient and discouraged. I would love to support someone else.
