@@pezzypooh how did you know?? I'm so scared about clots after surgery it's making me nuts!! My BFF died a week after having her baby by c section because of a clot. -
So I come to find out that there is no Nutritionist within my bariatric group.. I'm confused as to why.. But now I'm also having trouble finding one. I thought it was standard for them to have one?! Anyone on Long Island that and help me out.. Maybe you know someone. Thanks

Newbie here. Anyone else scared of death?
chilepeppr4 replied to Onion's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
It's like I wrote this!! I'm scared to death( no pun intended). I go back and forth 1000 times a day. What if I get a blood clot, what if I die on the table.. Etc. I'm just starting also, I have about 5 more months of waiting to go which, like you said.. Is probably the worst part -
Any other long islanders out there? ????

Is it silly for me to be scared about being able to drink my water like I am Use to?? I drink tons of water.. I can drink a 16oz in one shot and sometimes I don't even realize that I am doing it. I am afraid I'm going to miss my water.

I'm not as worried for my neck, as I am my whole face...my friend tells me all day.. I don't understand how you have no wrinkles at all.. I attribute it to my water intake, plus my fat in the face????... But I'm afraid after the surgery in going to look older, I'm 35 but people ask me if I'm in my twenties.. ????

My friend at work was sleeved in June.. She's not much of a water drinker to begin with, but she does crunch ice all day.. Like alllll day... So I guess that's a good way of getting it in -

Ok, so this is one of the last things to do for you, they said to schedule one right away since it might take a while to get in -

With United health care community plan, also my dr didn't mention it, do I need to stay at my weight, or can I hover around it? I'm confused

The person I spoke with said that if I have a few months of weigh in already it counts towards the 6 months. I'm going tomorrow and I believe I have an October and September weigh in. -
