Not telling anyone. What do you say?
keisha henry replied to Ssze1109's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
My motto is if I can help someone though my experience I have shared. I work in the hospital and all those conversations have came up and been discussed. I not mad at people who don't disclose but at the same time if they asking how you lost the weight they may want to know because they are on a weight loss journey. I have been vocal about my process since the beginning. I had some I know use me and ask about the surgery and had already had it done her and her husband so I can say no she didn't she because she asked me about it. She said she lost fifty pounds in a month so she going to do it on her own. Being private is one thing and lying is another. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -

Well I haven't had much back lash and they know , if they talk they do it behind your back trust me. I have helped at least 20 people through the process so that alone gives me comfort because I understand the struggle and hearing people say you just need to exercise. They don't understand 25 lbs is not the same as 150 to 200 lbs. I tell the haters until you know my struggle you can tell me something. Your comfort will come from helping people who understand. A lot of people against it because they don't know and are scared of what may happen to you. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -

Why do people have the need to not be truthful about the surgery. I had been morbidly obese my whole life if I could lose almost a hundred pound in 6 months it would have been done. When I started my Journey 3 years ago 12/9/2013 I was 400lbs and asking people how they lost the wait and they told me that lie but after I had the surgery they confessed. Remember you may inspire others to get healthy. Remember this a tool to lose the weight but it's a life time of work. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -
