Anyone returning home via American Airlines post op ?



Recommended Posts

I have an expiring upgrade (by Feb. 28) on American Airlines that I thought would be nice to give a fellow bariatric patient who might be flying a distance and would appreciate the extra room (obviously you won't be able to enjoy the food or drink). You need to already have your ticket purchased. Upgrades aren't always available and I'll want to make sure it clears immediately when requested. Let me know if you are interested.

What a nice offer! I'm a Diamond Medallion on Delta, so I know how much flying it takes to earn those upgrades.

I just flew home on Southwest from SDO to KCI. Man was it rough!! I went with Southwest cause it was cheaper. I wish I would have gone with a different airline.

I usually fly Delta cause I work for Delta and can fly standby for free.

That is such a nice offer for you to offer someone else your upgrade.

I am purchasing my AA TIX tomorrow for my FEB 15TH surgery. I am returning the 19th flying from San Diego to Memphis Tn

@Itsjustjustin and @mbuczkowski

Where are you connecting. Is it DFW? Likely one of the legs won't even have a first class. But Private message me your dates/flight number so I can check the aircraft as well as availability to upgrade.

You too @mbuczkowski PM me your outbound to San Diego. At this point I haven't had any takers and will see if I can help with the going there part.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
