I think I am a bariatric pal forum stalker



Recommended Posts

I am ready to submit to insurance after my 6 months of supervised weight loss completed this month. My bariatric surgery advocate should be submitting in the next week. I have to confess that I am a forum stalker. Trying to post more. I am amazed by all the support here and just want to get a surgery date after all this time/work!!

I lurked for seven years in fits and starts. Started contributing when I had my sleeve in January. I do love this site, has been very helpful for me.

I am definitely here often! I learn something new all the time, and it is great for motivation!

Good luck with getting your date! The waiting is difficult for sure.

Hehe i think to be honest, that all of us were and still are forum stalkers!! :) and like others have said, keep on stalking! There's so much useful information here and should you have any questions, just ask away, someone will respond and try to help where they can :). This stage you are at is, i would say, the most difficult, it does get better :).

Wish you all the best with your weight loss journey xox

I was a stalker, then fell out of the program for about a month, and rejoined. I am scheduled for surgery Wednesday and I am excited and scared. It is a life changing decision (for the best) but scary still. I have never had surgery and I won't this to be my only time. I did have wisdom teeth removed and a cyst of my index finger removed where I was knocked out but this is invasive, and it makes me think about it.

Good luck~

I think I am a forum stalker too. Do we need to join another support forum for stalkers? ????I think I need to start stalking in the bypass surgery forum because the doc thinks I may be a better candidate for it????

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      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.
