I am in pre op having surgery in 9 days and I'm terrified/excited and would really love someone to talk to and help me with this journey! Any one in the DFW area?

I'm just outside of Fort Worth, had surgery 7/6 and am new to the group. Would love to have someone to talk to as well if you are able.

I am absolutely available! Would love to have someone to talk to as well! I am right next to lewisville and grapevine. Just moved to Texas a year ago so I don't know much about location. How are you feeling so far?

Hey there!! I'm doing ok, it's definitely a struggle to get all the Protein and hydration I need and I've been super weary of trying to introduce soft solids for fear of dumping syndrome. I'm about 45 minutes SW of FW but I used to live in Grapevine a few years ago so I've got a good idea of where you're at. How are you doing?

Hello! I’m doing ok, it’s up and down but I’m feeling better as I lose pounds. It never seems fast enough but I keep that in perspective! How are you doing?

For sure! I completely get, it always feels like the weight is coming off so slowly. I’m doing really well, feeling a lot better and I’m going on 9 months post op. I’ve lost a little over 100 pounds and have been really working out a lot and trying to stay active while eating right.

hi!! i am doing really well. My biggest struggle is getting enough Protein and Water everyday. I'm also having a really hard time remembering to take my Vitamins everyday. Do you guys ever stand up too quickly and black out? That's been happening to me lately! I am 10 days shy of 4 months out from surgery and have lost a total of 105 lbs. (I lost 40 lbs in preparation for surgery). I am hoping to lose 30-40 more lbs. I am hoping I can do it but a little in disbelief that it could be possible. Then again if you had asked me 4 months ago if I thought I would be down 100 lbs I would of said heck no!

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
