Sleeved in December and I feel amazing
katrina75 replied to elisa_rose's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hi elisa_rose I also had my surgery Dec 6th. I've lost 6 stone (84lbs) since surgery. It's the best thing I have done. Good luck for the future x -

Hi chucklecheeks The only advice I can give is if like me I did not get much help from a dietician because I do not live near anywhere where they do the op. So I have had to look for help online I also follow a lot of people on YouTube who had this done and it's really helpful to know that what you are going through others have too!. I got really depressed in the first few weeks because I could keep nothing down but water due to a mix up of medications I was on preop and postop. But some people do get depression for a while because your body needs to catch up with your head and vice versa. I thought I had made a mistake in the first few weeks but now I'm so much better especially health wise. I was on 23 tablets a day for various things now only 6 and 2 of them are Multivitamins and iron. So don't get disheartened if things are hard it does get better. [emoji5]x -

Hi Gina I am from UK and also had no help post op. I had lots of problems in the first 3 weeks. I am also disabled and had problems with my medications after the op. I will check out these videos that you have mentioned. Thank you. Sent from my SM-G903F using the BariatricPal App -
