Hi my name is Jamie and I am new to this forum. I am 47 years old and will have the sleeve surgery in either February or March depending on when my insurance finally approves it.
I have been married for almost 19 years and have a son that is 25 years old from a previous marriage and he has my only grandchild, a girl, who is 18 months old. I also have a 15-year-old daughter.
I am originally from Cincinnati Ohio and moved to Kansas City 4 1/2 years ago. Since that time I am retired and babysit my granddaughter two days a week and chauffeur my 15-year-old around. In my previous life I was a human resources director for 25 years.
I have fibromyalgia and about 60 to 70 pounds to lose. I don't exercise because it hurts and I am looking for gentle ideas to incorporate into my post surgery lifestyle. I also just created a post about not liking puréed foods. I know that it's going to be a problem I just can't deal with the consistency of them. So any and all advice would be greatly appreciated and I am looking forward to getting to know all of you
