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.

Hiya curvy.. My surgery date is March 12th. Doing my presurgical blood work tomorrow, then taking my preaurgical class in the 26th. It's so exciting, nerve racking all rolled up together. Seems like time is going so slow!!

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        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!!
