What's wrong with me?
Deactivatedfatgal replied to Pupmom's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
This is absolutely me to a tee! I was 120pds until I met my now husband and we old just eat all the time! -
The vision issues can be caused by vitamin deficiencies, definitely vitamin A. I've had blurry vision in the last month. I did a google search and found others who have had this due to deficiencies.

How do you view overweight people now that your thin?
Deactivatedfatgal replied to doxaholic's topic in The Lounge
Yes! I had a coworker ask me if I'd been on vacation for the past few months & she passed me nearly everyday but didn't notice me until I dropped "43" pounds, smh! -

That blows my mind! I've seen this. When I was 235pfs people walked past me like I didn't exist. -
DEPRESSED AND DISCOURAGED
Deactivatedfatgal replied to browngirl89's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
31 pds in 3 months? That's an awesome loss! I would personally prefer to lose slow vs rapidly but it seems to be out of my control. I'm down 43 pds since my surgery date 10 weeks ago. I think it's important to realize everyone has their own journey and our bodies are different. chin up, you're doing awesome! -
I concur! I love hearing advice from people 2+ years out, gives me hope, courage & motivation!

I am not far out but thes are good questions! What initially attracted me to VSG was the fact that I would never feel hungry again but I have learned that the gherlin returns..as far as regain is concerned I think people fall into bad habits & thus gain weight. I have also heard of slow digestion for some as a reason but please take my 2 cents with a grain of salt as I learned this from others stories.

Low BMI - VSG 6/2 (panicking!)
Deactivatedfatgal replied to Renee0629's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
You have to do what's best for you! Once you have it done that's it, no going back. I was nervous leading up to my procedure but I did it! And I feel I had no choice. I was 235 pds at 4"11 yoyed for 6 years and was borderline diabetic & I think I have undiagnosed pcos from the weight gain over the years. I couldn't live another year like that. Hope you find comfort in your decision. -
Lapband to VSG
Deactivatedfatgal replied to SweetGisy's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
This makes me feel I did best choice by not getting lap band! Vsg is a great tool and is very popular. I would research and do hw before making decision! Best of luck to you -
Congrats to you on your pregnancy

I am convinced im doing this all wrong. I forget to eat & know I should be on a schedule. Today I took a client home early because they had illness and I felt like I was going to vomit every time I coughed. I began drinking a premier shake and the feeling eventually went away. I can't help but feel I'm sabotaging my health .

First Dr Visit questions
Deactivatedfatgal replied to DJ Juice's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I feel I didn't ask enough, it was "I'm prediabetic and done trying on my own, I'm having wls". I wish I would've asked more, but my mind was made up. Good luck -

Initial consultation, or post op? I am unsure of what that is -
Not sleeping at night.
Deactivatedfatgal replied to StormJumper's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I experienced this also I was a few weeks out and would feel shaky and could not sleep, heart was racing & everything. I think some of it was stress related for me. -
Hope you feel better!
