This is awesome! I'm from St. Louis and I live in Ballwin right now so that's not too far. I also love the idea of a clothing swap/exchange/sell type thing.

Also I bought a big box of upcal, Calcium that you put into a drink. I can't stand it but that could be because anything I had the first week after surgery reminds me of being sick, so I can't have any of it anymore.

I'll bring the box and you guys are free to take as much as you want.

I also have three fourths of a bottle of sugar free hazelnut Torani Syrup. I don't know if that's gross but I swear I haven't put anything in it! I just hate to waste it but I don't like it.

I have some nice work clothes that I just bought before surgery. I could probably sell them but it is a hassle and I'd rather give them away to people I know are going to appreciate them and pass them on when they can't use them anymore!

Are we simply trading clothes or can we also sell them? I've got some nice ones that if they don't sell, I'd love to give away but would like to try to sell them first.

Hi EmmaLindsey - that is fine if you want to put a price on them. We'll just let everyone know some items are for sale and some items are for free.

Hi all, i think this is an awesome idea! I would like to attend but am very scared of driving in the st. Louis area.. I work in st. Peters, MO off cave springs. Is anyone interested in carpooling? You can contact me at uniek1@ymail.com. By the way name is Anisa and I was sleeved 3/3/14.

I am so excited, our first local chapter meeting is this Wednesday, June 18 at 6:00 pm. This first meeting will consists of Welcome, Introductions, Icebreaker Activity, Local Ground Rules, Call for Volunteers, and Closing. Directly after the meeting we are having a clothing swap. Some members have clothes for FREE and some members have clothes for sale.

Looking forward to meeting all of you!

Great question! I should have asked for RSVPs...can everyone let me know as I have prepared workbooks for everyone to keep and use at each meeting. I also have a give-away - we'll draw names. I'll have ice and Water available.

Thanks!

      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! 😞
