I has my surgery 10/16. Down 75 lbs so far. I have to try and figure out how to post a picture. I plan to copy this tattoo.

I am also getting a tattoo when I lose 100 lbs even though it's not my final goal.

Anyone willing to share the cost of their brachioplasty?

I'm a little over 4 months post op. I feel like I have to watch every bite I take and exercise for several hours a night to see weightloss. It's frustrating. I know of others that have had wls and are drinking beer and eating whatever and the weight keeps sliding off. Meanwhile I've been fighting with the same few lbs for weeks!

Not looking for a magic pill. Just frustrated that those who are putting little to no effort are shedding ten lbs a week while I'm chipping away at 2 lbs. I know we shouldn't compare ourselves with others but it all honesty it's hard not to.

Wow, that sounds very agonizing. I'm sorry you've been through so much. Really, I feel like you done amazing just maintaining what you have. Best of luck on your reset! We are all cheering for you!

I thought the same thing. Spoke to my nut she said to wait it out. [emoji29]

My husband and we're both morbidly obese too. Your situation mirrors mine. I had the surgery and 4 months later I'm down 75 lbs and he has refused to make a single change. Sometimes he gets up some motivation to try for a few days but ultimately reverts right back. Sent from my SPH-L720T using BariatricPal mobile app

I totally understand this feeling. I manage a Central Kitchen and Bakery for 15 grocery stores. We make thousands of Cookies, cakes, cinnamon rolls, sticky bund, etc a day. And it's my job to over see it all and ensure the quality. Sent from my SPH-L720T using the BariatricPal App

I think everyone goes through the 'regret phase'. I'm three weeks post op. It definitely gets better. I was also super nauseous and vomited a ton. It finally eased up. I'm finding what I can and can't tolerate. Fighting the "mental hunger" is very hard. It also does start to get better. Hang in there. I'm happy to chat with you. We could exchange numbers or friend each other on fb or something. You're not alone! Sent from my SPH-L720T using the BariatricPal App

Three weeks post op today. Can eat 1/2 cup of most things with no problems. Trying to mindful and make good selections. Paranoid sleeve is too big. Sent from my SPH-L720T using the BariatricPal App

Is anyone hypersensitive to the smell of cleaning agents, laundry soap, and such after surgery? They are driving me crazy, burning my throat and making me nauseous. Sent from my SPH-L720T using the BariatricPal App

Honestly, the smell of people's breath really makes me sick, including my own. Sent from my SPH-L720T using the BariatricPal App

This is vomit worthy! Sent from my SPH-L720T using the BariatricPal App

Yes, I'm cold too now. We are losing our blubber that was our insulation, lol Sent from my SPH-L720T using the BariatricPal App

Ok, you guys are making me feel better. I really feel like I'm losing it. Even the dishwasher tabs leave a smell in our glasses that makes me feel like I'm drinking dishwater. Sent from my SPH-L720T using the BariatricPal App

I was sleeved on Oct. 3rd. Had a large amount of swelling. Swelling is still going down. Has anyone had any weight loss yet? I am not back to my pre surgery weight yet. Sent from my SPH-L720T using the BariatricPal App

Hi MindyMe! I'm also scheduled to have surgery on 10/3. I be getting a sleeve. I have also been overweight most my life and am starting this journey at 337. I've also tired to keep this all a secret but a few of the people I trusted have spread the word ???? Best of luck in this adventure! Sent from my SPH-L720T using the BariatricPal App
