Recommended Posts

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 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

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

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!

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
