Hello all :-) I would like to join the Fb page too. susan.m.nutter@gmail.com
I was sleeved 1/25. How is everybody doing now with things? How much weight lost? Stats?

Try fairlife milk. Delicious w lots of Protein.

Mine started 1 day before sx. They don't want you to wear a tampon during sx and will give you a pad and disposable panties. It is up to you what you use after sx and once you are back in your room. It has more to do with how much you can bend. I would throw tampons in your bag and if you can't use them the hospital has pads for you.

I have been given the ok to exercise. My 1st week, what kinds of classes or weights or other things should I be doing? Any help is appreciated.

Hello all! Sleeved 1/25. 26 lbs down so far. It's def a struggle to get in my fluids. Doing good if I can get to 54oz by midnight! I'm getting about 90+ of my Protein in. Doing ok-ish w my Vitamins. Def hate when I make a wrong decision and the pain I get from that learning experience. Ex: I used to love the Gordmons Cajun Fish filets. Not now. It was prob the Cajun seasoning that got me :-( All in all, things have been a lot better since about week 3. I prob do need to Fig out what else I can eat but my go to meals for when I'm at work are egg salad and tuna salad.

Lexington here too! Sleeved 1/25. Where do you all go for support groups? Do we have local ones in Lexington?

This is precisely why I went with my program - they won't even consider you if you're not willing and eager to do manditory 2 year follow up in psych, exercise physiology, nutrition, and meet with the surgeon monthly for the first 6 months and quarterly thereafter, with unlimited 'as needed' appointments throughout. They also offer support for 5 years beyond the initial 2 if you want it.

If that wasn't impressive enough, they recently started an outreach program for folks who had surgery anywhere that didn't offer the support to enroll them in their aftercare at a fraction of what it actually costs them to run.

Where can I find information on their outreach program? Thank you

Looking for support buddies!

Hello. I am a little late to this party:-) I just started this journey and anticipate to have surgery in November 2016. You guys are a couple - a few years out now. How is everyone doing? Would you care to share any advise w/ a newcomer? I also chose to use Dr Weiss. Thank you for any responses. I hope to join your group of lifelong support :-)
