Hello wanted to let you all know I'm post op day five. Feeling better just started having back pain from gas. But only last seconds so bearable. Not hungry at all but trying to keep fluids up rather than worry on Protein. Good luck all.

So neat to see you fellow Virginians here My surgery is on sept 18 with Dr. Bautista. I saw how at least one of you had him also. Glad to hear it was a positive experience! I'm so excited for this new way of life. I'm in Powhatan, VA.

Dr. Bautista was my surgeon. I was sleeved May 16! I live in Midlothian so not too far from you! Feel free to message me if you need to chat or have questions. One bit of advice...Bautista's older nurse who weighs you in? Double check everything she enters. She had ALL of my allergies wrong, she put me down as a smoker (I'm not) and various other boo-boos that were a pain to fix. Friendly warning!

Haha thanks for the advice. I definitely will double check! I might even ask to look at my info just to be sure.

I would triple love to have someone to talk to about this whole thing. I know NO one who's had surgery. So yes, would love to chat

I'm in Midlothian all the time. Sheesh..we're so close..maybe meet for lunch one day? I feel like I'm starving to talk to someone who can relate lol. I met a nice woman at my behavior mod class and we exchanged numbers and texted a few times. I have to be to St. Mary's for labs, etc. by 7. I think I'd better sleep!

Great! I tried to private message you my cell #, but it gives me a error (I'm using the app). Maybe I'll try the website instead.

Oh wow. I use the app for this forum, and it didn't say this thread was in the age specific (twenties). Lol. I'm 40! Sorry lol. Sigh..now I'm really feeling old

I'm 42. It's all good. Twice as good, in fact!
