Do you like "Food Police" in your life? - Yes or No
Polly Pocket posted a topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I have always when someone tries to be my 'food police'. But i'm wondering, do you find having your significant other or bestie acting as your "Food Police" helpful or not? -
How long before others noticed your weight loss?
Polly Pocket posted a topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
How many pounds did you loose before people started to notice? Did people seem to notice the pounds rapidly coming off? Did they question it? Your response? Sent from my SM-T560NU using BariatricPal mobile app -
Any January 2018 Sleevers?
Polly Pocket replied to VSGnewguy's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Surgery was Monday the 8th. Getting discharged today. I'm excited about the future. I still have concerns about getting in the requirements and what\when to tell those who start to ask, but I'm sure it will be all worth it. I'm 54 years old and weight has been a life long battle. I knew that this had to be done so that I could enjoy the rest of my life without so many meds and complications from excess weight. Sent from my SM-T560NU using BariatricPal mobile app -

Surgery tomorrow morning
Polly Pocket replied to camopink27's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
It is finally here!!! Tomorrow is my day as well, Camopink27! I'm on my 3rd day of clear liquids and having a hard time imagining that I won't be hungry and that just a little bit of food is going to fill me up. Good Luck and God Bless! Sent from my SM-T560NU using BariatricPal mobile app -
Anyone had lap band removal before the actual revision surgery
Polly Pocket replied to J_Mkay's topic in Revision Weight Loss Surgery Forums (NEW!)
I had my band removed in July. Monday I will be sleeved. Recovery was easy. I took the day off for the procedure and the next day to recover at home. Back to work the next. A little soreness, but nothing too bad. I are normal foods right away. Sent from my SM-T560NU using BariatricPal mobile app -

I have yogurt that I'm not going to be eating for a while (surgery on Monday). I'm going to try to freeze some in my silicone ice cube tray! Good idea! -

Did your spouse's weight change after YOUR surgery?
Polly Pocket posted a topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I figure that my spouse will either lose weight right along with me ( since I won't be eating much, cooking much, no snacks or eating out for a while) OR he may gain weight by eating what I don't. What happened with your spouse or significant other's weight? Sent from my SM-T560NU using BariatricPal mobile app -

Help - I’ve stalled during first month!
Polly Pocket replied to amybeth150's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Seems impossible, doesn't it? Wouldn't you just love to show this to those "calories in, calories out" people? Keep the faith! -
My surgery date is Jan 8. I already signed up for 2 exercise classes, the first is which starts in March. I should have a significant loss by then. I'm hoping that I find them enjoyable.
