Hi Ash!

I would love to be friends. I just stumbled across this site and it's the best ever. I am less than 3 weeks out to my surgery date. It would be great to be friends with someone to share ideas, questions, advice or just to check up on each other. Look forward to hearing from you!

Sondra:)

Hi Sondra - just saw your post - we are all about the same time - maybe we could get a small group setup and work together and not necessarily all the 1000's of people out here. lol

Hi Ash & All the Folks Who Responded,

This is WeeWers. I posted a while ago for a buddy and got 2 lovely replies. It seems your post is coming together to form it's own sub-group within this forum. I would *very* much like to be part of this group -- but I don't know how to go about it.

I'm 5-6 and weigh about 300 pounds. If all goes well I'm looking at a June surgery. This forum is soooooooooo big that I think it would be very difficult to make friends here. Hence, why I'm interested in the group. I'm home-bound and do not have friends outside of my husband. Do you think you could keep me updated as to being part of the group. Is the main focus of the group for folks who are sleeved in May & June? If not, is there another focus -- or just being buddies -- which is good enough for me!

Take care all,

WeeWers

So is there anyway we can all communicate as a group?

nope just forums, its not set up like Facebook to where your friends have a wall to post...it does alert you when someone whose friends with you changes their status, but no group chats besides the instant messagener at the bottom

      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!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
