South Florida Buddy?



Recommended Posts

I am almost six months post op and down 75 lbs. I still have a long way to go and I am finding myself getting discouraged and loosing myself in this process. I would love to have a buddy who lives close but am willing to work with anyone. I am 26 and would prefer someone within my age group who can relate.

Thanks

There is a bariatric support group that meets at South Miami Hospital each month on the forth Thursday of the month. (Check SMH website) I have been going to it since before my surgery. Anyone can attend. Very open and lots of great support.

I am familiar with these I actually had my surgery done at South Miami so I do get the monthly newsletter about the meetings. I guess I thought I could do it alone and was a little apprehensive about attending them. I guess I should check it out this month. Thanks.

Hello to you both. I'm out near Weston and a little older but young in spirit. A mother of 2 young kids (13 and 9). I'm suppose to have my surgery done on August 10th. Could use a buddy or two. Especially when needing someone to chat, vent or get encouragement from.

Hi Ladies! I am now 10 months post op and down 91lbs. I am 26 married with no children but hope to have one on the way within the next year. Please feel free to message me anytime even at this point I need all the motivation and encouragement possible. It is a very long journey but as long as you have support you will overcome all obstacles.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
