Did you loose friends?
tacocat replied to Tina4heath4ever's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My friends pushed me out of the circle post weight loss surgery. They stated they didn't want to make me feel bad eating around me. Since then I've upgraded to better more active friends. My surgery weeded out the duds. -

I've lost 78'lbs and it's hard for me to see...I think it is because I was in denial about how big I was. Everyone else seems to notice. -
My surgery was in Hagerstown

Judged at the hospital
tacocat replied to BairwithMe's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
As someone who works in a hospital, I hate to hear all these negative experiences. We aren't all callous and bad! On a positive note, I had my annual with my gynecologist and he told me how proud he was of me! He had suggested it in the first places and I hadn't seen him since! -
When are the "typical" stalls?
tacocat replied to LivingLight's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
If it makes you feel better, I got stuck on 211 too! It was my first stall! I thought my scale was mocking me! I'm down 67 lbs since my surgery in July...my stall was at 3 months. -
What role did mental health support (counseling, support groups) play in your success with bariatric surgery?
tacocat replied to My Bariatric Life's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
It pissed me off, it was such a joke. The guy was condescending. -

Things you feel good about?

I'm in. Current weight is 212, my goal by the end of the year is 190.

Gurgling Upper digestive tract after eating?
tacocat replied to freelee's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
I had VGS and I find myself gurgling when I wake up. It's crazy and it just started 3 months out. -
When you are too big to manage your period...
tacocat replied to Katsitsyahawe's topic in The Gals' Room
I'm a big diva cup fan. I had no issues with insertion/removal at 270. -
I went to a frou frou fancy restaurant. I got their small plate with a prawn on it. It was creepy and it had a face, but it was small enough I just blended in with the other eaters.

I'm at 3 months and it's yet to start falling out. I've actually noticed my hair looking thicker and fuller (I have hashimotos and I previously experienced the thinning.). I'm hoping that my increased vitamins, protein and biotin help)

I think the approval took a month, I needed a note from my Gp, blood work, psych eval and visit to a NUT.
