Arkansas Bypass Peeps

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.

    Yea I'm sure it will but we'll always have to watch what we eat and drink or we can just gain it back. Kinda scares me a bit.

    Yea that part scares me to..

    I was a little sad at first that mine went slow but the more I thought about it the happier I was that it went slow bc it gives the skin time to shrink back down to normal

    Yea I'm gonna have to save, finance, or maybe use or income tax to afford it a little at a time. But my stomachs been ruined since I was 16 and got pregnant. My hubby's known for a long time I've needed a tummy tuck and the way it's looking probably new bobs lol

    I wish insurance would cover it bc once all the weight is gone and all that is left is fat skin it causes rash or raw area and that hurts like s mofo
