I'm looking for a bypass buddy in Arkansas. I had surgery March 2015 and am looking for someone to keep each other motivated and share the experience with.

I'm from Arkansas. I had rny in Dec 2014. How are you doing since surgery??

I'm doing good. Just got back from vacation yesterday. Drove to New York ,Pennsylvania,and Kentucky. Don't think I was getting enough calories or fluids cause towards the end I was kinda blacking out every time I stood up. Dropped 3 pounds on vacation though which I used to gain cause we like to eat out at new places lol. How are you doing? Getting close to that year mark.

I'm doing good. Some days I struggle to get my calorie count even at this point. It's is never easy. Slowly getting there.. Glad u was able to lose weight while on vacation

Yea I know it will always be something we have to be on top of with calories,protein,and fluids.But I definitely don't regret getting the surgery. So where at do you live in Arkansas. I live in Hackett.

Sorry took so long to get back my notification on here are awful.. I live in dover. And yes fluid protein calories and vitamin lol.. I love that I had it done. I only wish I would of been able to do it sooner. But 30 better then never.

So your 30? I'm 31. Mine doesn't notify me very well but I get bored and check alot lol. Are you exercising? I need to start. I'm getting flabby need to work on toning. I know probably no matter what I'm gonna have lose skin but it would help some to exercise I'm sure.

I either walk or for stationary bike for 5/8 miles depends on how I feel. Right now that's all I'm doing i have no energy for more at the moment.

Yes ma'am I'm 30 I turned 30 Dec 17 and had surgery on the 15th.

That's an awesome birthday present lol. Did you have your surgery here? My insurance had an exclusion on all weight loss so I had to self pay. Couldn't afford it here so had my bypass in mexico. So do you work?

Yes ma'am I had surgery at Baptist hospital with Dr fuller. Love him he is so awesome. He tells it like it is. Yes it was a awesome present. I currently am a stay at home mom of two beautiful rotten girls.. I also do recruiting for s company called class a. We help truck drivers find new jobs n get them hired on if they qualify.. I also sell jewelry in candles.

I'm a stay at home mom of 3 rotten boys lol. I've really never worked always been at home. Think that's one of the reasons I gained so much weight. I sit on my butt too much.

I've worked outside the home off and on the last 12 years but finally had to give it up a year ago due to my migraines becoming to much to do anything with. I enjoy being at home though.. The recurting I can do as I want like the candles. Don't have to leave the house for them

So you still losing weight pretty good 6 months or so out? I'm curious to if it just slows down or stops one day. I'm not losing weight super fast but I here that's the best way anyways. I'm just glad to be losing and not gaining anymore.

Mine been slow really the entire time but I'm still losing it as of now thank goodness I have 106 left to go I didn't eat right for a week due to being sick so I gained 4 pounds back but now I'm feeling better so that will drop off fast

I guess I started out smaller in the first place. 258 was my highest and was at 228 the day of surgery. I'm down 48 pounds so far in 13 weeks. Still got 60 more to go till goal. Went from a size 24 to a 14 already so I dunno what size I'll end up being when I meet goal but I think I'm doing pretty well so far.

You are doing amazing.. It will happen before you know it
