Can the FB group be changed to Secret instead of Closed? I know a lot of people want their choice for surgery to stay private. I'm too afraid to join a non-secret group.

The FB group has been changed to secret. Now only people in the group will be able to see/find it.

Sorry about that!

I can't find the group. Maybe it's too secret now. Lol.

Can you please send me a request? On Facebook I'm Delilah Nelson

Thanks for changing it! It will be harder to join now though. I think whoever is in charge will have to add us.

Fair_Maidan, I'm going to PM you my email and I think you can send me an invite. I hope this isn't too much of a pain!

Hi again,

It looks like I can only invite my friends to secret groups on Facebook. For that reason I've changed the group backed to closed and updated the name and description to be just generically named July. There is no mention WLS so we look like a completely random group. If you have snoopy friends, they will see you belong to the group but will not see any posts. The link below will work so you can request to be added.

I've sent friend requests to some of you who have previously commented and can add you to the group that way as well. I just don't think it's right for me to force you to be my friend just so u can be in the group. ( I do however always like new friends :)

What you see when you click the link is the most your friends will see. If you're okay with it, we'd love to have you aboard :)

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
