hi all, just joined and looking for support with my new eating lifestyle. i had gps in October 2007, so im two months post of. Ive been doing really good according to my doctor but lack patience!! I have no support at home so doing mostly everything on my own and reading and searching on the internet for information about gps,,then i found this group. I picked up a staff infection at the hospital which set me back and im still fighting that. I have spells of trying to work around the house then get real weak and have to stop. Then i wander if its the surgery, not enough food, low blood sugar, or not enough water.. seems like everyday is a challenge right now but im so glad i had the surgery done.. this looks like a good place to be....

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

Yes, this is an awesome place to land! Welcome! it took me a while to figure out which end was up too! It takes a bit to find your balance in the food and drink game. Also, since you're still healing from surgery and adding on fighting an infection to boot, just hang on a bit longer - you'll feel much better before you know it!

Welcome to the board, thank you for joining us.
What you are feeling at this stage is normal enough for post ops.
It takes about 3-4 months for your body to heal completely and adjust to your new plumbing, so just concentrate on getting in the instructed amounts of protein, water, and all the vitamins and minerals and supplements that you've been told to.

(((((((HUGS)))))) May your journey go well.
