LexiNWO 4 Posted May 1, 2015 Hi all.....I'm Alexis. Was disheartened to find I was kicked out of my last support group from reasons unknown. A friend recommened this one. Still trying to figure out the app but like so far! Are you able to chat privately with other users? Share recipies/tips/advice?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fuzzyfeline 12 Posted May 1, 2015 Hi, I'm Fuzzy and also 4 weeks out. Down 31 and at the 3 week stall. I don't know if there is a private chat but would like to. I'm in Florida. You? I feel well; the only time I'm in pain is when I play bridge; that's due to the awful chairs. There is good news. I saw my regular doc and he cut my diabetic med down from 500mg 2x p/day to 250 once a day. I still have to push myself to get out and walk. I still haven't tried going back to the gym or yoga. How are you doing? If you reply I will see it show up in my email. Fuzzy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LexiNWO 4 Posted May 1, 2015 I'm down from 311-274. Haven't been cleared for physical activity by the surgeon yet. I'm up north in small town in northwestern ontario. I don't have pain unless my belly is giving me heck about what I ate. Haven't seen any of my doctors yet since I left hospital. I'm doing okay so far, struggling with water/protein intake and finding things I can eat that don't make me sick or get tired of easily. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OregonTeacher 63 Posted May 1, 2015 Hi Alexis, Welcome to the boards! Hopefully you will have a better experience here than on your past site. I don't know about a chat, but you can send private individual or group (5) messages. If you click on the persons name, it will take you to a place to set up a message. I look forward to seeing you around here! Amy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sreeves 56 Posted May 2, 2015 Hi Alexis! I won't be 4 weeks postop until next Wednesday but, like Fuzzy, I am at the 3-week stall. This site is awesome for support and I am finding lots of us who had surgery right around the same time. Welcome aboard! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
