Pre-op - Gastric Bypass - Looking for friends.

I'm looking for people who might be in the same situation as me.. I'm pre-op for the Gastric Bypass Surgery sometime in August-September time of this year and wanting to know if you'd like to add me as a friend so we can motivate each other...

Also I live in South Central Minnesota. 26 years old. Happily Taken.

    I'm on the beginning steps myself (only a certain few know I'm starting this journey) - I go for the dietary eval on the 10th and psychiatric eval on the 15th of this month, I have been with MFP for awhile since my company first partnered with them - Good luck on your journey and you can friend me if you wish also! :)

    I'm not in the same boat but I survived severe acute pancreatitis and cancer (twice) with 21 surgeries in the middle. I'd love to help in any way that I can. Feel free to add me and send me a message. Anything at all! :)
  • Hi everyone! I am 8 days post op and have lost 7 lbs since my surgery on 4/29/14. I am still at 306, my goal weight is 125 - 150 lbs. If anyone going through the the process has any questions feel free to ask. :)
