Most absurd thing people said to you when you told them you were having WLS?
spowell replied to mytime4me's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm so sorry! People are mean! I haven't had negative comments made to me (that I know of ).Y family that knows has been very supportive. My husband told more.people in the beginning than I did because he's so proud of me. My MIL said she can't wait to see me (I was sleeved 12/5). I am a slow weight loser though.

I take a monthly picture or when I go to the Dr. I can't always see a difference but my husband and friends can. I am down 67 lbs since June 2016. I had the sleeve on Dec 5th. Keep up the good work! Sent from my SM-G900V using BariatricPal mobile app

I worried about the psych eval but it wasn't as bad as I thought. I found the questions to be more about drugs and alcohol and how do we cope with things. I've never had a drug or alcohol problem. Tell the truth. They will find a way to ask the same question multiple times and in multiple ways. That was my experience. I don't know if all tests are the same.

PCOS after having surgery
spowell replied to Wuisgettingsleeved's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Possibly! I've been getting my face waxed every 2 weeks for a.long time. I had my Sleeve done on 12/5. Last week when I went for a face wax, my hair stylist mentioned that my facial hair is not as bad. So we are trying 3 weeks between face waxes. My primary Dr already took me off metformin (I take for PCOS ) because my levels look. I don't know about infertility because I am 47. Sent from my SM-G900V using the BariatricPal App -
Liver reduction diet questions!
spowell replied to Yvette804's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Don't cheat! It was a struggle but after my surgery the surgeon told my husband that he could tell that I did exactly what he told.me too.! I was proud of myself because I worked so hard and it paid off! Hang in there! Sent from my SM-G900V using the BariatricPal App -

Thank you for reminding me of the 3 week stall. I am almost 1.month out and I quit weighing myself. It would just disappoint me. I can tell that I am losing inches. My husband and some friends can tell especially in my face. Thank you! Sent from my SM-G900V using the BariatricPal App -
