Michigan girl looking for a surgery and support buddy!

I'd love to be part of the fb group too! What are the privacy settings for it? I just don't want all of my fb friends and family to see me as a member of the group as I haven't decided if I am going to tell any of them about my plans.

[Trisha213 27]

I have it set to secret. You have to be added to the group and only people in the group can see what we post and discuss.

[nicksmommy 139]

Please sign me up then! Donna Tripi

[Trisha213 27]

Is it under Donna Burgharst Tripi?

[nicksmommy 139]

I know people who've had the surgery but I don't have a support system from them so I'm all alone in this journey ????

This is a closed/secret group for everyone who is going to have bypass surgery in February 2016!

We would LOVE to have you join in wit us! Just go to Facebook and search my name LaNae Davis Petersen, send me a friend request. I can then send you an invite to secret page and then I'll remove you back off my friends list

It's meant to be a positive group who we can all be going through the same things at the same tim on this journey! The goals will be to provide support, bounce questions off each other, have somewhere safe to share on the days that aren't so great, and share our victories on this journey!

MOST importantly it's all confidential, unless you are in this group people can't see the group, who's in it or what the posts are.

I just made the group for people on in our area, I'm hoping we will be able to have a local support group, workout, cooking, etc. if you wanna be part your more than welcome!

I'm not having surgery yet. . I may have a March date, as I have my psych eval on 2/22.

[Trisha213 27]

Don't be discouraged. My entire process took 10 months.

[Donegirl4life 39]

Thanks. Puts everything in perspective. I'm really more anxious than discouraged. My insurance does not require me to do a 6 month Dr managed weight-loss program. I was not required to do a sleep eval. I'm going through Beaumont Troy.

So far I've had a pap smear, initial nurse practitioner intake , nutrition consultation and diet recommendations(1200 calorie all foods plan),and stress test. I was told I'll need to do a three week preop diet. I have a body composition and bone density test on 2/2. I meet with the doc on 2/16 and psych on 2/22.

Everything is moving relatively quick. I started with the seminar on 1/8. Maybe I'll have a date for March/April.

I'm getting married at the end of august in Key west. It's more impatience on my part.
