Id go buy some laxitives and wear a tank top and light practically see through leggings, no socks, weigh with no shoes and no jewelry. And dont eat or drink until then. Sounds funny, but a persons got to do what a persons got to do. This is a one time thing of course. Sent from my SM-G930P using the BariatricPal App

When are you going to stop losing weight?
Icantbelieveit replied to BrittneyMarie's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
The new average size for an American woman is size 16. When you see people smaller than that people say they need a hamburger. Meanwhile they can still be obese. Craziness Sent from my SM-G930P using the BariatricPal App -

Does EVERYONE have saggy skin?
Icantbelieveit replied to staceface's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
What I'm turning into, but not as cute. Lets talk about having a turkey neck. Or as I call it, a vagina puddle forming on my lower neck. Especially when you do that trick of putting you tongue up to the roof of your mouth it get rid of the double chin for pics or just looking in the mirror.

Surgery or no surgery?
Icantbelieveit replied to southernsass's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
Ive had gastric bypass on may 10th. I have been stalkong these boards for a year. The one comment I about regrets that I have read is "I'm XX years old and I wish I did this years ago." Never read "I wish I waited another 5yrs or 10yrs. Ever. Count me in to wishing I did this 10 or 20yrs ago. I'm 40. Could I lose weight on my own? You betcha. Could I keep it off. Nope. Yoyo weight is truly not good for your body. Sent from my SM-G930P using the BariatricPal App -

How do I tell my surgeon he screwed up?
Icantbelieveit replied to thomas1984's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Didnt you post your brother ate 2 hotdogs with bun shortly after him being sleeved? It sounds like to me [i'm no expert] that perhaps there are eating disorders that are going on. No surgery will fix that. That needs to be addressed asap. Sent from my SM-G930P using the BariatricPal App -

If it is a normal size, YOU have to do the controlling of portion sizes. Nobody else. YOU have yo take responsibility and weigh portion sizes. Just because you can do something doesn't mean you should. Sent from my SM-G930P using the BariatricPal App -

I think many people think fat peoole will happily eat anything in front of them. Unfortunately I think its quite the opposite. I know I am a very picky eater. Some things will set me to start gagging and possibly throw up. Especially some vegetables. It's not only the taste but also the smell. Peas are evil. Peas.are.Evil.

I swear 95% of trainers have never had issues with food. Its like me telling a smoker, just stop smoking. I have no idea how it is to smoke and be addicted. I never understood how people would tell me they forgot to eat the entire day until 10pm. Whaa? So I cant pay a trainer to tell me about nutrition and how he could have saved me from surgery.
