Someone be my friend! 25/f/NY



Recommended Posts

Hey there. I looked on the forums for twenty something's and it was a ghost town! I just had my bypass 3/31 and I'm healing well. I'm looking for someone my age who would like to text updates and keep each other positive. I'd prefer someone in a similar stage of the surgery but I am open and truly just would love to make a connection with someone who is looking for something similar. Please respond or pm me. :)

Hi there, haven't had the bypass yet, I'm scheduled for 4/22... I too am looking for someone to connect with and get thru the many upcoming stages! I'm not too savy with the site yet, so add me if interested. Good luck! I'd love to know how your doing.

Hi bangbangbarbie,

I am 28/f/ny and scheduled for a VSG on May 1st. I am not quite at the same stage as you are post-op but would love to hear about your experience and possibly keep in touch along the way. Where abouts in NY are you and where did you have your surgery? How are you feeling now?

Hello friend,

If age is flexible I'll be your friend. I had my RNY April 2, and in stage 2 of recovery. While I will have a monthly support group meeting, sharing experiences with someone else will aid recovery. Meanwhile, my 2 cats are giving me daily support and will send some to you too.

Hey @@bangbangbarbie! Ya the 20-something forum is a ghost town! I'm 25, had my RnY on 03/26/15 and live in Ontario Canada. I know exactly what you're talking about, this is all a bit tricky to navigate and it is helpful having people who are going through the same thing. Feel free to drop me a line!

Hope you're doing well :)

I am a member of the May sleevers group and they have a very active private group on Facebook. Would that be a more convenient way for everyone to communicate? I would be more than happy to set something up if you all think so! There is zero way for anyone else to see that you are a member of the group :)

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
