How Do You Add Friends?



Recommended Posts

What is the benefit of doing so? I have been on here for a couple of weeks just reading. I don't really have friends that have had this operation. I sort of feel alone:( This site has been a true blessing for me! I have a very supportive family, but they don't really know what I'm going through. I'm having my surgery December 3rd!!! I love it when I hear other people having surgery around that date. So ready for this new journey!!!

I think you can only do it on a computer or not on the app. But it's nice to add people that you talk to a lot ;-)

December 3rd will be here before you know it. Mine is the 10th. Yikes ;-)

NEWBIES - adding a friend 101 - benefits of friends??? we all need friends!!!

go to a persons profile - i.e. JayhawkFan777 from "above"

click on "my profile" it will bring you to her info - her profile - then click above "add friend" - simple!!!!

add a message is also marked there, you can write a note to someone, but remember - not allowed to pass notes during class ;)

glad your family/friends are supportive - but there is no way they can truely understand whats going on with you - post here for questions, help - we've all been where you are - except if you haven't yet ;)

you are NOT alone

good luck with pending WLS

speedy recovery

see you on the boards

      Happy Wednesday!
       
      I hope everyone is having a lovely week so far! 
      It's been a bit of a struggle this last week...I'm hungry ALL the time.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      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!!
