Low Key about Surgery



Recommended Posts

I was dreading telling my husband...then my dr recommended the surgery for PCOS so then I felt better. He is deployed so that was an awkward texting conversation lol. Maybe I’ll be the BEST version of me when October rolls around! [emoji177][emoji631]




Texting about making a surgery decision - you are doing what you gotta do to get the ball rolling. I appreciate what you and your husband have done to protect my freedoms. Thank you so much.

My son is in the Army. Joined when he was 18 yo and I worried about him. He's served almost 5 years and will be finished this summer. Those serving face a lot over their service time.

Wishing you much success and please give your husband my thanks. [emoji253][emoji631]

Thank you and tell your son thank you for us as well. This is almost 26 years for my husband and 4 deployments (national guard) but he says this is his last one. He is also army. I have a son in the navy stationed in Japan. I feel like my guys are all over the place lol I still have three boys at home...I can’t wait to be the best I can be for them...they really really need me present in all capacity right now. What did your son do in the army?

I am a manager where I work and everyone under me knows the struggles I have had over the years with my weight. One day in a meeting with them I told them I was going to be off for a couple weeks to have surgery. The looks on their faces looked like gloom and doom. We are a very close group and a few days later in another meeting I just decided to lay it out on the table and to my surprise some of them started crying. They thought I was dying or something and did not want to tell them. They have been my biggest support group and now I am glad I spoke up. My husband and daughters knew as soon as I made the decision to pursue the surgery and they too have been very supportive but my siblings did not know until after surgery because I knew the comments I would get.

      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! 😞
