The scale is just the outward condition of your choices. There's gotta be a mind change. And believe me it's a challenge to work on those thoughts.. They been with you for such a long time.. The body only takes what we give. Read the book the battle field of the mind. What you thinking..... Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using the BariatricPal App

No Husband went home. Family visited. Helped me walk after surgery. I slept most of the time. Even at home. Your choice... Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using the BariatricPal App

You should be on a liver shrinking diet for 2 weeks before surgery. They should be giving you instructions. You'll be out of work for 4-5 weeks. Yes you take your husband with you the day of surgery. Hospital stay with out complications is 2-3 days. Get your instructions from the nurse practitioner. Drink boost or premier Protein drink. Water... Talk with the staff.

Walking long distance with my husband. Walking in a grocery store. Getting into my clothes and look good. Helping others and sleeping good after exercising during the day. Enjoying myself even when others don't. Loving me more. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using the BariatricPal App

First be sure it's what you want. This is not for the faint of heart. It changes your life. It takes time. Learn about food from the dietician. Look at what you can eat. Knowing you can only eat a small amount. I tried to eat small piece of cake. It didn't taste the same. If we could eat and exercise correctly,none of us would need this surgery. My family know. And they cool with it. But I got to be cool with myself. I was sleeved in September. It's been 90 days. It's still a learning experience. But I am 35lbs lighter. Give it a lot of thought....

Yes.U should be on liquids for at least 2, 3 weeks. Your stomach is in the healing phase. You just had surgery. No eating unless nurse tells you to advance. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using the BariatricPal App

Just take it slow. Read instructions fully. Do what n.p or Dr. tell U. It's not as hard as some people make it. I had lots of sugar free popsicle. Different Vitamin waters and sugar free Gatorade so. Every 2 weeks the n.p. advanced me. If U have problems let them know. I'm 80 days post surgery. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using the BariatricPal App

Welcome. I'm 76 days post op. It's a learning experience. Take it slow. Listen to your n.p. and dietician. Ask them for help when you need it. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using the BariatricPal App

U can't change your daddy mine. Most of my family is small. They don't know what it's like to in this illness of over eating. What's going on in his mind is not what's going on in your mind. I made the decision to have my surgery. I listen to my family's opinions , but buck stops with me... love U. U're all you got. I'm 30lbs down since September. Do U girl....

First of all your not suppose to be keeping up with your family's eating habits. This is not a competition. This eating is for your health. Stop looking at what U can't eat. Look at what U can eat. U letting your family think U missing something because U not gorging out your mine. Your thoughts are making U sick. Love yourself through this process. Eat the right foods in the amounts. If we all were doing the right thing to began with this surgery wouldn't be necessary for some of us. It's a tool. Change your mind about your life. Don't hurt your precious body. It's all you got. Take time to learn, get a new therapist that challenges U to grow and manage this eating thing. Family won't change. So U change. They may never understand. That's ok .. as long as you do.... Love U today. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using the BariatricPal App

Yes I looked at the surgery on the Internet. So I had an idea of was up. I think some people think they can have this surgery and not take responsibility for their eating habits. This surgery is not for the faint of heart. U still got to work your skills. Eating is a lifetime time. It's a learning experience. It takes strength to still get up from table. To say no to the cake and yes to the gym. This is a tool. You still got use this tool correctly. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using the BariatricPal App

Don't give up on yourself. Family gonna give U their view point,whether you ask for it or not. Some of my family was opposed to me doing too. But I feel better. 30lbs lighter. Handle your business. When people aren't overweight they don't know the burden you carry. Encourage yourself... Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using the BariatricPal App
