That's one of his requirements...support group attendance as a pre op. Are you post op? What was your timeline like?

I had RNY revision on 6/28/12. My dr is up in concord so he recommends a support group at north east med center. I'm hoping to find one in Charlotte.

Hey, Charlotte here. Working, did you find your support group? I am going to one tomorrow night. It's required by my surgeon pre-op too.

Hey working4shoes! I'm in Salisbury and also had Dr. Bauman - June 20th...he's excellent. Do you go to support meetings? I've been thinking about it but don't know when/where.

I love Dr. Bauman, he is great! He has done both of my surgeries. They have a support group it is actually run by the nutritionist Diane and is at the hospital. I don't know when the Sept meeting is though. I live about 40 mins from the hospital so I was hoping to find one that is in Charlotte. I will let you know when the next one is and maybe I will make it up there.

How are you doing so far?

Hey L Belle - Where is your support group located tomorrow? I haven't found one in Charlotte yet.

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

      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! 😞
