Sex is sooooo much better when I'm thinner. And even with looser skin, I am waaaay hotter than when I was obese. And not just because I am thinner, but because I am more CONFIDENT and sure of myself, and the weight loss was a big part in re-cultivating that. You are really worried about how you will feel/look after weight loss (I notice this is your second post on the topic ♥️). But are you happy with your situation right now? I'm guessing that you aren't since you are moving forward with the surgery. Change is scary. But if you put in the effort, it will totally be worth it. 100%. ♥️

Was feeling sassy after my shower tonight and tried on a dress that I haven't worn since 2004, when I was 30. It fits!!!

Hey !Silver Fox Dudes, ready to try. it out, if you can keep from laughing at my formerly fat skin areas. And when I lay down you don't need to play anthropologist and go excavating, it's there and handy! I have turned from Shrinking Violet to Geranium, blooming all over and not one of my blooms needs Deadheaded!

we were told not to take gummies. Other two are OK.

Sometime in the first week after I got back home. Your weakness and lethargy is unlikely due to vitamins, but just a hangover from the surgery as you go through the initial healing, and quite possibly a result of your current diet being very low in carbohydrates (intentional or not) which is what helps keep our short term energy levels up.

The next day, chewable only, and after one month I can start the pill form if so desire. I am going to switch to pill because I do not like the taste of the chewable.

I used vitamin patches from day 1 for three weeks then switched to chewables (didn't like the taste), then capsules.

I was told to take iron with orange juice

I dont think we owe it to anyone to “ prepare” anyone for what we chose to do to our bodies.. that person might not like the status quo to change but how you feel about your life and body are your own feelings.. VERY weird reaction.. I’d be kinda offended .. in the end it does not matter what anyone thinks .

It seems that the first friend might have not meant any malice but was surprised that you lost a great deal of weight. Her reaction is typical of many who are caught off guard. By saying I want the old back she probably was referring to the type of relationship she previously had with you. Some people equate dramatic weight loss with a change in personality and she for some reason might have thought that you've suddenly changed. The other friend probably wasn't mad in the literal sense but instead gave you a back handed compliment. In the end as you stated all went well.
