I'm Alex, founder of BariatricPal. This forum is new, and it has one job: getting you your first reply.
Post an introduction. Cover three things:
Share only what you want to share. No weights, no photos, no surgery date if you would rather keep those private.
Two things worth knowing before you post.
Nobody here is your medical team. What you get is people who have been where you are, telling you what it was actually like. Keep the medical questions for your surgeon or your doctor.
We do not take money from vendors, clinics, or drug manufacturers. Nothing here is recommended to you because someone paid for it.
Whether you are researching surgery, waiting on insurance, three weeks post-op, five years out, or on a GLP-1 and trying to figure out what comes next, you are in the right place.
Go ahead and introduce yourself.
