Any Seattle/Tacoma Sleevers with surgeries approaching?



Recommended Posts

Hi. I live in Federal Way and have surgery scheduled 31May. I'm very excited. Anyone else having surgery soon?

I also live in Federal Way and just had my surgery June 20th.

Hi, ACJordan! I hope you are doing well. I live in Edgewood and take my kids to school in the Federal Way area. Maybe we'll have enough people in this area that had surgery in June to form an unofficial support group!

Hi!! Yes, I'm doing much better, thanks. How are you doing so far? Did you go to St Francis?

An unofficial support group would be great!

Camber, count me in for a local support group! I'd love live talk with people at the same stage!

I'm feeling really grateful right now that my recovery is going well. (Knock wood.) I was pretty fit before surgery so that likely helped (my surgeon said it would). Alas, I likely won't lose weight nearly as fast as others, but I figure I'm only "competing" against my own former self, right? We are ALL gonna get healthier!

@@ACJordan, I was at St. Francis too! Every day I seem to feel better. My biggest problem now is the soreness and fatigue but I know that will get better with time.

Kadie777 and ACJordan perhaps we can meet up on a day we are all free and feeling good? Hilariously, I can't think of anywhere to go. Whenever I meet people it is almost always at a restaurant of some sort. I can see a lot more is going to change than just my weight, lol!

I work in Seattle and am a single Mom so the best time for me is on the weekend when I'm not trying to be superwoman.

Me too (single mom, living in Seattle, work weekdays, that is). @@Camber, weekend late mornings work well for me. I like the idea of meeting for broth (Panera or pho). Yay!

I went to a graduation party today and I found it incredibly difficult to be in an environment where I normally ate a ton for the sake of socializing and now could only have liquids. The smells and watching people eat my favorite foods was awful.

I'm definitely seeing now how much I was eating for fun and comfort and not because I was hungry. I knew it was true before but now is really hitting home. I wanted to eat cake and lumpia so badly!

      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! 😞
