Anyone from ohio? I'd love to talk about surgeons and your process(:

Anyone from cleveland ohio?! if so I'd love to hear your experience and who your surgeon was! And anything else lol

Okay so it's been about a month since I had surgery... And it kills me to see people eat in front of me... It's so hard. I'm at a family birthday and everyone is eating garbage... Tons and tons of junk food. And I'm over here like... Let me just drink this water.. I want to cry. I think I'm more irritated than anything that I can't have solid foods yet.. Input please!

Yeah that's how I see it too. Is being DD. it's still sucks. I know that once we are able to drink its very small amounts. Which is good.

Yeah it'll be worth it for US! But this is like torture lol. I just wanna be able to eat food... Like I just want a carrot or lettuce or something lol anything... I'm 21. And all my friends are getting wasted and I'm just sitting at home looking at my ceiling..

Haha I hope! I hope I can get used to this quickly! Lol cause in only like a month out.. It's deff gonna help in the future lol

I miss... Eating solid foods... But mostly I miss chips and chipotle.

Yeah! I had mine last week there! My whole process was through them. It was amazing! The hospital is also amazing. If you have any questions let me know!

I am four days out .. And I feel so sick. I feel like its hard to breathe.. It's hard to sleep.. Just started my protein and I'm taking it very very slow. I didn't think I would have this much pain.. But I do! Even on the pain meds I can barely move..

Thank you!! Right now I kinda just push a pillow down lol. Thanks for the tips!!

Thank you so much. I haven't heard of a stomach wrap. That sounds like it would deff help me out. I can't believe how much pain is involved.. I never thought it would be this bad or that I would only get one bottle of pain meds and no refills.. I'm going to call and ask about my meds.. Another thing is I'm finding it hard to get 60oz of liquid a day.. I got sent home with the breathing thing and I've been doing that. Thank you for responding. It makes me feel better that I'm not the only one that feels or felt this way.

I'm kinda nervous.. Maybe I'm being a baby. And i slept most the day maybe I'm dehydrated? I'm deff going to call????

Like what! This process was going sooo slow and now I can't believe my surgery is Monday!

Thank you!!

I'm from Cleveland! And I'm having my surgery Monday! Lol

Thank you so much! That's amazing. I met him And he seems very very nice! I am very confident with him. Thank you! Yes! It's graydanika@yahoo.com I hope ill know my date by the end of the month!

For 3 weeks that's good!

Good point!! How come you didn't get the whole gastric bypass? That's what I'm going for. And yeah I'm not trying to gain that's for sure! 20 pounds is good for one week!

Oh god! I'm nervous! Cause like I've read and heard people lose about 100 pounds between 6-12months and even less... And that would be amazing.. Haha

Awesome I'm so excited! I don't have any balances to pay. Which is good! I'm nervous they will deny me. Cause I'm not losing a lot of weight like people normally do before the surgery..

That's truly awesome! Did your insurance pay for it? And if so what kind do you have?

OMGG ME TOO! I'm so excited I can relate! How has your process been? Who's your insurance! I have Jennifer as my dietitian. I love the atmosphere there! Your almost there! Tell me everything:) I am so happy.. Lol I'm only 21. So I don't really know anyone my age that has got it let alone know anyone who has got it.. I'm on my second dietitian appointment! My insurance is medical mutual.. I'm 2/3 dietitian appointments. I have one more class which is this Wednesday.. I still have to get the sleep machine.. And I think that's it.. So I think February? Cause my last dietitian appointment is jan 4th I think.. I really don't know what they do after that..

Awesome! Have you had your surgery yet?

Hahah Im so ready to get rid of it! Lolol it might be a flat tire after I lose the weight but.... I'd rather have a flat tire than a huge one.

How come yours for rescheduled?
