Bariatric friends

Hello!
My name is Emily and I had vsg 10/22/19. I developed 2 ulcers and stricture but still managed to lose 120 lbs. hubs had surgery on 6/22/20. I’ve been using snacks as my meals (IE, quest chips 🤦♀️) so no judgement from me on your diaries. I’m actually switching to a more plant based diet as dairy and meat has wrecked my bloodwork since surgery. I also don’t count carbs. Carbs from Whole Foods provide me energy for my workouts and life since I’m usually under 1000 cal a day so I’m not here for the keto life which bothers most bariatric patients. Sorry. 🤷♀️ I’m looking for bariatric friends that are here for support and the long haul. I don’t preach on you, you don’t preach on me. Just a friendly face on this journey.
If an occasional high five and a “good job!” Sounds awesome to you, then let’s be friends!! ❤️❤️❤️
