Dating after surgery



Recommended Posts

Hey everyone! How is dating post op? I just had the surgery oct.20th but i was dating before than and cut who ever i was talking to off. It's not that he wasn't supportive, he just didn't understand why needed it after explaining a million times. Should we have a bypass mixer or something ? I know it's my time to focus on me but it would be nice to mingle a smidget.

This early in the game, I would definitely say you are right in needing to focus on you. There will be plenty of people knocking down your door to get to know you soon enough. If you are looking for people to get to know and hong out with, I cannot say enough about getting involved in local surgery support groups. Your doctors office should have one. Once you are several months out, you have progressed well, and your routines are in place, feel free to start testing the dating waters, until then just make a bunch of new friends and have a great time doing active things. This will be an amazing time of discover your new body and what it is fully capable of. I am so excited for you.

If you have any additional questions or I can help out in any way, links to contact me are below.

      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! 😞
