New Here Looking For New Buddies



Recommended Posts

Yes that's where I seem to be. It's all worth it in the end so I can't complain.

Just approved by my insurance last week, my pre op appt is the end of this month, which we schedule surgery on that date. I figure late March/April is when they will get me in. Would like to find a buddy to chat with thru this process, because frankly I am scared lol.

Congrats on getting approved! I will be having surgery around the same time as you! I'm always looking for new buddies they are great to have.

welcome!!! the sleeve is the best thing that happened to me...I was nervous about my many things before surgery, but now I am fine...loosing weight and gaining strength.

To top it all my daughter asked me 1 day before surgery when i was ready with all my tests...MOM do you think you are doing the right thing? I was so upset.

But now she is happy with my progress.

SO GOOD LUCK TO ALL OF YOU.

Well I'm glad you listened to your heart and knew what was best for YOU.. I'm so scared to tell my family and friends because I know they will discourage me. I really need this surgery, it's the perfect tool to help me change my life. I just don't know what to do.

      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!!

      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
