@@natnat919 It's sad that people (some) base the way they treat you on what you look like it's a tale as old as time. It's kinda neat to have a perspective on both sides though

I wouldn't think it would be that bad if your drinking 40 oz, you obviously need more BUT it could be from vitamins if your taking any or medications?

Before and After Sleeve Scars
Elode replied to Nikki Monroe's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Here are mine, sorry it's the best picture I have the one on the left is the week after surgery and the one on the right is this week. 8 months. It's pretty much faded, as you can see a couple scars is the least of my stomachs problems! I also had 3 c sections. -
Oh and BTW if anyone has a cure for the flabby arms I'm all ears! Whole other subject....

@@sleevenv Exactly! Luckily no one was ever mean to me, maybe because I was too big and scary I've always had friends ect it's mainly the way outsiders react. Being visible is good

So this is my latest update, I know I haven't done one in a long time. The picture of me overweight sadly is not even me at my highest (301lbs) , the other one is last night. Sorry classic mirror picture but that's all I can do when I'm by myself and my aunts want updates.

No just think protein. I can't really even use a cookbook I eat so little the portions are always way to much. After my kids and husband eat most of the rest gets tossed after a day or two. Funny thing I use to be the one eating all the leftovers. I realize that now.

Yep 40 Triple D to a 32 D. I'm ok with it but I'm getting them bigger soon as I get done losing weight. I've always had big boobs so I want them back! Just keep the smaller waist size and DD. I'm built to handle it.

Start pre op diet in 2 days..feeling nervous depressed
Elode replied to vendinguy's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
It changes but you get use to it. Eventually you will just eat a few bites of whatever. You can still socialize and eat you will just get to talk more because your mouth won't stay full The whole time!!! -
