Hazeleyes, sorry I haven't written lately, My father had a heart attack and had triple bypass surgery. After he got home he got an infection and his blood pressure dropped so low they had to give him several transfusions. He is now in a Rehab center and it is slow going, so I have to drive my mom back and forth to see him. Its been a real rough couple of weeks. I hope your doing well.. Keep in touch.... maybe we could exchange email addresses sometime so we don't have to keep posting here.

Hi all its Kim! I live in Beavercreek and am looking for help! I was banded on Sept 30 2008 and I have only lost 10 lbs. I am physically challenged, hurt my back and left knee and am having a hard time exercising. I would like to find someone to actually hang out with, walk the malls and other light exercising activities. I hate exercising alone and I hope with someone else doing this with me that it may be easier. So if anyone wants to help a girl out let me know!

Thanks

Kim

Hi!

It's been a long time since I've posted. I am in Beavercreek too. I just had surgery again for a complication (dilated pouch) and am on liquids again but I am feeling a lot better.

Do you Beavercreekers get together? I would love to compare notes.

I am not in Beavercreek, but Englewood.

To Kimberly J. - What I have found very helpful...is exercising in the therapy pool at the YMCA. It easy on the knees, I can do weight resistant exercises in the pool...And it is GREAT for toning.

I have notice that I have the mother's apron (flabby skin on the tummy) - but totally I will tone it up with crunches!

      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.

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
