Looking for preop friends :)



Recommended Posts

I am currently preop although I have done all my clearances and have my surgery date (9/21). Just looking for some preop friends to talk with up until (and after) surgery. We could help keep eachother on track diet wise, and could help ease any fears we are having. (we all have those fears that our non-overweight friends or spouses just don't quite get). I am located in upstate NY but I am open to talking to anyone from any location. I do have Facebook etc if you prefer chatting that way. Who knows, we may become great friends!:)

PREOP FRIEND HERE: @shuttergirl829

I just received the approval for my at home sleep study. I have my endoscopy on 8/21 and my final required weigh in on 8/27.

Hi there. I go for my psych evaluation and dietician appointments tomorrow. I spoke to the surgeons office today and they said I may have RNY bypass yet in August or if not September. I can't wait to have this amazing tool.

I actually got a surgery date today of 9/2! I could not stop crying when the office called me to schedule. I went through such a range of emotions that I didn't even expect to!

I am so excited for all of us..we're going to kick some weight loss butt and get healthy in the process!

      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! 😞
