Hell sometimes we have to just experiment. I'm glad that you are okay now. Sent from my SM-G360P using the BariatricPal App

I believe that you will. My surgery was one of the best decision I've ever made. If you follow directions and don't stress yourself then everything should fall into place. Sent from my SM-G360P using the BariatricPal App

You will! Just listen to your doctors and stay true to YOU! This is your journey and don't let anyone throw you off your game! Good luck with your journey. Sent from my SM-G360P using the BariatricPal App

Greetings all, I am officially 4 months 3weeks post op! I am 58lbs down and I've gone from a size of 18/20 to 10/12. I am genuinely in love with myself again. Coming from a person that's been an obese child, adolescent, and adult; this journey is amazing. Now I can't lie; there are sometimes in which I stall and feel like crap or when I eat junk food, but I hop back on the band wagon and straighten up. I would say that the biggest struggle is having your mental catch up with the physical! Some days I walk pass the mirror and same damn girl you look good and then there are some days in which I just say DAMNNNNN Wtf are you doing today. I must say it's an amazing dynamic but hey it is now a part of my life. Does anyone else experience this? Sent from my SM-G360P using the BariatricPal App

You all are absolutely correct. I was repulsed by him the entire time. It was an excellent learning experience. Believe me, I am not a fan of hard lessons so I will never hang out with his ragged a $# again. Sent from my SM-G360P using the BariatricPal App

So the other day my ex and I went out. He noticed I was losing weight and asked me what was I doing in order to lose weight. I took a deep breath and told him that I had gastric sleeve surgery. His face changed immediately, I quickly snapped and asked what? He stated "well my mom had the lap band so I know how this goes". I asked him what is that supposed to mean? He said all these negative things like what about loose skin, you know you have to work out with the surgery, basically all the things I knew about. It basically wasn't what he said but how he said them. I just wanted to slap him. I'm not a sensitive person,but he struck a freaking nerve! I guess because he was all over me when I was fat, but now as I slim down he hates me... I have no idea, I mean he is an ex, but apart of me still cares about what he thinks. Has anyone else had a similar experience? Sent from my SM-G360P using the BariatricPal App

Hey! I'm doing wonderful! Thank you for asking. I'm losing inches which is good. How are you? Sent from my SM-G360P using the BariatricPal App

I did a few days after surgery, but now I love my sleeve. Sometimes I get pissed because I can't eat what I thought I could, but that's just me being a brat. Overall it's an amazing journey and I wouldn't change a thing. Sent from my SM-G360P using the BariatricPal App

Hey girl! I've lost 23 and I had surgery of the 30th. I'm losing more inches than pounds; may be that's the case for you. Sent from my SM-G360P using the BariatricPal App

Opurity multi is pretty decent. It even has 30mg of Iron! It can be a little chalky, yet you only have to take it once!!!! All you have to take is your Calcium and that's it! Sent from my SM-G360P using the BariatricPal App

Omg I've just posted the same thing. I too have noticed that I'm losing more inches then pounds. I think it's because I haven't hit the gym yet. I'm going t inquire with my surgeon and see if this is normal as well. Let me know if you get an answer. Sent from my SM-G360P using the BariatricPal App

So I'm officially 1 month post-op in 4days, and it feels great! I am down 23 pounds. Today I was playing around with some of my old clothes and amazingly I could fit them pretty well. I've noticed that I'm losing inches faster than pounds: has anyone noticed that they're losing inches faster than pounds as well? Let me know what you all think.
