Looking for someone to connect with after surgery

Hey everyone! I'm new for the most part. I'm scheduled for surgery on December 10th and I was hoping to find someone to was getting sleeved right around the same time that would want to talk. For motivation, worries, support, someone who is literally in this process at the same point in time as me. :-)

@@SleeveGal please add me to the fb group I just sent my request

The administrator will probably grant your request when she logs in next.

I had my surgery on 12/14. I'm 39 and my starting weight was 229. I'm trying not to weigh myself everyday, but I weighed this morning and I was down to 218.

I'd love to be able to chat with you guys on the fb page, so I just requested.

That is great. I had my surgery on the 10th and have only lost about 6lb. A bit discouraging.

Don't get discouraged elfishman! It will start to come off. I have a friend that's over a year out and hers came off slow for the first 3 months or so and then picked up. She looks great, so just keep plugging along with protein and water!
