Topic: New to Az 9 mon post op
Hi,, I am 9 months out. with save all the details. doing great with wt loss 20 lbs till surgeons goal but already at my goal and really dont feel another 20 would be healthy on me..
I am desperately seeking support here from women mainly.. having some body image issues..not coping with improved body i know it sounds weird.. but didnt have surgery to be smaller size but to help my knees. I was comfortable with my larger size. odd i know. I was never an overeater but couldnt lose wt due to unknown medical reasons. I am also having issues with getting used to dating/intimacy, new smaller chest size. I have been seriously unable to purchase size small underwear because of anxiety instead of being excited like i should be.. luckily have understanding friend that is going to do it for me so i will get out of my size 20 underwear because i need to wear a size 4 now!! I feel like I am going crazy sometimes. I have unsupportive mother that keeps telling me I am too skinny then tells me I look heavy in my facebook pics so I struggle with that. I have been sober for 16 yrs so if anyone in AA also that would be helpful. I am 41 and retired I text and use internet alot. Just hoping to find someone who is either going thru the same or is further out post op who can help me thru this please. I also am curious about removal of extra skin vs. toning and drs pricing here you can message me here or i just joined the group on facebook so on there alot. thanks for taking time to read my post. Kory

Wow! Congrats! I wish I could make progress there too, but Juarez jerks me around and has made it clear that he is not interested in operating on me again.

Going to Aceves in Mexicali on Jan. 8 for a sleeve. We will be sister sleevers!
Topic: RE: I have a date
They said that I won't be able to do the pre-op class before the 4th. The first available class is the 11th. It's disappointing, but at least it's not too far off. I have to travel for work at the end of February, so I wanted to get in as soon as possible so I'd have time to heal up.
Topic: RE: I have a date
Oh no! I'm sorry you got rescheduled. Did they say why? I am also scheduled for the 4th with Dr. Fang for a sleeve!
That's great you got a date though, it took forever to get mine.
