Hi my name is Autumn I'm having my surgery the last week in sept. I would really like to start an online chat group with pre op and post op individuals to maybe help each other out and support one another. Meet once a week at a certain time. We can discuss or weight loss for that week. Our struggles we went through and more some. Please let me know what you think! Thanks.

I am having my surgery on the 19th of sept. So nervous!!

I am scheduled sept 26. I think a Skype group would be so beneficial !!!

I'm Autumn as well waiting on surgery to be scheduled they said it would be in October need some buddies ???? good luck and well wishes to everyone !

Hi I am E having my surgery 9/29/14 my doctor wanted me on five shakes a day but I said at least one meal a day and four

Shakes very nervous monday coming on meals and just five shakes

No meals five shakes

I had my surgery 3days ago and have already lost 3 kg (6.6pounds). I have been pretty sick and it was hard but worth it already I can tell!!

I think a Skype group would be great. I am 4 weeks out and am seeing weight go up and down. Not happy. I had a dream last night that I had this surgery and a year later was still fat. I woke crying and can not get it out of my head. So depressed

Hello I am two weeks out l have lost 25lb.went to my fellow up yesterday just starting to do puree foods. hang in there and

do all the things that you are supposed to do and you will see the weight go down. that dream

was just that my be your subconscious mind this

journey is very mental and physical the mood swings are

unbelievable you are doing the

right thing by talking about it

stay strong and you will be ok

remember one day at a time

we did not get this way overnight good luck to you

I'd like to be part of this group. I had my surgery on Sept 29 and was ok at first. Thought I would cruise thru with no issues. No vomiting or nausea. Emotions tripped me up. Doc says I need to slow down. Trying. Shifted my work schedule to half days.

Welcome I to thought that this journey would be much different

the day after surgery I regret what I did cause I was in so much pain I said to myself what the hell did I just do. But I knew that I did the right thing for the long run and that what I did it for the long run the rest of my life . Yes the emotions are a trip

They go up and down all over the place but hang in there it gets better . I haven't gone back to work as yet still trying to deal with this new way of life Its been trying but I have no choice but to keep going forward still on soft foods and liquids clothes fit different thats a good

sign thus far. Hang in there it gets better . Ok

Absolutely I think that is a great idea!! Feel free to add me as a friend and send me a message for my Skype

We have one on fb and want to start this in our group by invite only secret group

I'd love to join in a Skype (or text) buddy group! My sleeve date is 12/16 - exactly one month from today! I am so excited and nervous and scared, all at the same time, and it would be amazing to have other people to chat with who understand the conflicting emotions and the whole process. Please PM me for my Skype info if it's still open!
