Looking for a mentor in Maryland

HI- I haven't had my procedure yet, but I live in Jarrettsville, and could use someone local to talk to, too. I'm going to hdg, and so far, so good.

hope to hear from you-

Hi, My name is Carol and although I had my surgery almost 3 years ago, I am still very frustrated with my weight loss. I have only been able to lose about 45 pounds since my surgery and although I have not gained it back, I still thought I would have lost more and so this is where my frustration is.

I would love to have a mentor or buddy to chat with that may be able to motivate me and set me in the right direction. I am 51 years old and think that possibly there may be some hormonal issues as well. I am also on anti-depressants and mood stabilizers. As you can see, I am in a pickle.

I have only had 2 fills in 3 years and sometimes especially around my monthly, I have a very hard time even eating anything. The restriction is a bit much. I am afraid to have any Fluid taken out for fear I would start to gain weight which would really upset me.

So, what I am asking is that maybe someone out there could give me some guidance and make suggestions to me that maybe would work!

So, if you feel like helping this sorry sole, email me and let me know. I could really use the help right now.

:thumbup:

Thanks,

Carol from Catonsville, Maryland

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

      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.
