I wonder if we could ask Alex to had a Christian WLS Support Group (for any kind of wls) under general surgeries, special interest.

. Sounds like a good idea

I think the question is what type of spiritual support are you looking for?

Another question: are you going to keep it positive only? The reason why I ask, some people say, since I've had issues, if I say here is what happened to me or try and ask people to do their "surgeon" or "office" research, that's negative.

the thread is for support through the good bad and worse .. And to help eachother over come. Negative in everyone's eyes and case is different. We are here for support, prayer, conversation, venting whatever is needed at the time.

Hello Ladies how are we? Are we recovering ? What phase are we one? Any complications ? Buyers remorse ? Are we walking? Any testimonies ?

Oh my goodness I woke up this morning feeling so discouraged and tired that I took the morning off from work to just have some "me" time. I poured a cup of coffee and signed on to Bariatricpal and I found this thread! God is good! I really needed this today. Thank you for starting it. Looking forward to following and getting to know you guys :)

Hi all,

My sleeve surgery is this Saturday morning. Check in time is 9:30 am. Would you keep me, my surgeon and the medical staff in your prayers that morning? And we'll all do the same as your date comes up. God Bless.

. I've never heard that I actually spoke to my pastor not once did he mention that .. People judge what they don't understand we are taking care of bodies.. And it's our choice and we are getting our lives back.

I am surprised to hear this. It never crossed my mind that someone would think that A medically necessary procedure would be questioned by another Christian. Glad your here. Welcome to the sleeved side!

      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?

      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! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.
