I'm from Virginia too! 40 miles south of Richmond. I'm 30 but only just. I'm right in the middle of my insurance six month wait so I'm looking at December or January for surgery (What a lovely present. Major life changing surgery.)

Has anyone considered blogging about their journey? I've always found writing to be a great outlet, especially blogging, since it has the potential to reach others who can relate. I was thinking about maybe vlogging as well?

My goal is too provide a straight-forward, blunt look at the good, the bad and the ugly of this process. Let me know if you are doing something similar! Here's a shameless plug for my first entry. :)

Also, if anyone else is interested in joining the Facebook group specifically for our age group (late teens and early thirties also welcome), just shoot me a message!

I'm 25... But I had my surgery when I was 24 years old. To be honest I spent my 25 birthday recovering from surgery. I would love to be in the blog group on FB. I am not sure how to send a personal message with my e-mail address. Could someone help me. Thanks!

      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! 😞
