Hi, I'm from Bronx, NY and would love to have a WLS buddy here in NY. Is there anyone willing to share their experiences, knowledge, feelings (good and bad) with me? Thanks in advance.

Hi,

People are always willing to share but what specifically do you want to know about? The reason why I say that is that everyone has their own way of getting thru things, some are generic to all. Those should be gone over by your doctor.

If not, there are a number of websites that do that. I have a blog, several others do, on what to look out for. Many of the bariatric surgery places them.

So how can we specifically help you?

Hi, swimbikerun. There is nothing in particular I need to know about as I have done plenty of research and see there is a lot of information here as well as youtube and other forums. I also have created a few post. I am simply looking for someone in my area who is or has had the surgery and would like to be buddies/mentor. Thanks for your response.

Hi Denise! Hope you are well! When is your surgery? I work in NYC... Live in NJ. I was sleeved on June 9th... So I am no pro but would be happy to support you on your journey!

Ahh! Surgery date 6-30.. Sorry I missed that!
