IM from NYC and theres plenty of overweight people that take good care of themselves well groomed, nails, hair etc Im one of them. I see no problem with treating someone as a sex object as long as its mutual in fact its one of my fears after losing weight. I have a problem with a addiction to food or exercise always from one extreme to another and a addiction to sex thank goodness im married but that doesnt satisfy me. Im social but always stay in safe environments school, church with family im always around people i know but im afraid of navigating the world at a lower weight I have to be honest I really try hard not to cheat I have 15 years with my husband

After taking out all the health issues you may have had. Do you just miss your body?

Did anyone load up on a fav food or like have a crazy moment before surgery? (Before liquid diet) like I have to eat this the worlds coming to an end? What was your last presurgery REAL meal

Do people that you known treat you different? How that makes you feel? Do strangers in general treat you different?

People have told me they have chewed and spit out the food if they really want to taste something they know they can’t eat like steak. My friend said she ate steak once and couldn’t eat for 3 1/2 days because she didn’t chew it down right so it took long for her stomach to process it. Shocking!!! Is this normal? Like a DL thing people do? Be honest please

I cant answer your question but can I ask what protein shake are you using?

Im pretty scared that I might continue to drink soda after surgery. Im hoping I throw up or something. Can any of you drink soda with no side effects?

Thanks for being honest I think a lot more people do it. Cause every person I know that has had the sleeve has told me I know 4 people 3 females 1 male and 2 of them said they do the flatsoda or a little soda with water that seems to the norm and non of them know each other.

might be alot of work but this is my skin regime and I shower 2-3 times a day the clay I do twice a week everything else daily Tighten Skin Kaling clay Olive and coconut oil Black tea Coffee water witch hazel extract Scrub twice daily Sea salt scrub Daily moisturize with oils Olive Coconut Argan Castor

My friend did the surgery and she looked older (neck wise) I was shocked that was 6 months after her surgery she was down 100 pounds now 124 pounds down and 1 year later her neck is perfect. So I think you just need to let till you skin catches up. Also your skin is an organ take care of your skin I oil myself daily and have really good skin. Olive Oil, Coconut oil, castor oil and argan oil I rub my hair, scalp, body, face, neck, arms everything feet it soaks it up I sit in my living room on a chair and soak it all up for 30 minutes or more then I shower (oh you can shave before you shower with the oil on its really good) Your Skin is an Organ look up ways to take care of it and make it part of your journey

i have a chicken well more like a turkey wing already has anyone had arm surgery does skin snap back. Turkey necks? Anyone get surgery, workout? Cause I feel like Im gonna lose all this weight and wear 3/4 sleeves forever even though I curently wear tanks I aint scared. But its fat arms as of now what happens when there deflated?

Hi am I being nosey absolutely! I just want to know if you weight changes what you do on the weekends.

Hi I had cancer last year did all the chemo radiation etc... now as part of my treatment doc wants me to have the sleeve surgery then get breast flap reconstruction with my skin from my belly. What do you guys think Im scared A F

I have to inject myself daily for 6 weeks with Lovenox because I had cancer and finished cancer treatment? did anyone else have to do this Why did you? And any sideeffects? The best thing I see is that Ill have no worries about blood clots so its like being extra safe cause my body has been through so much I know it will take me longer to heal.

Hi you can get Kate spade dresses at 6pm.com there like 60-80% off hope that helps

Soooo this actually made me cry. I too havent been able to get on rides with my 4 kids their 8,9,11 and 13 and thats their norm, their like ok moms not going on...they dont know it cause I'm fat only hubby knows that. Kids just think im scared. Little do they know in my 20's I rode front seat always. Wow like I never even thought of this I think itll be things like this that Im not thinking about right now that I'll be able to do. My goal is going to the beach every weekend and a wardrobe (I feel like the wardrobe is not such a big deal cause if I dont get it after nothing fits I'll be naked lol)

I hate exercise. Wait no I fudging hate exercise Ive been reading people stories and I see everyone becomes a Olympic Athlete after surgery. HOW? My goal is to work out like a beast after surgery to take advantage of the surgery for like a year then live a healthy life. Please let me know how you changed your mind set?

You look great before and awesome now. Maybe you should recreate the photo with your smaller self I think that'll be kinda cool. I think this is you ah ha oprah moment. How do you feel about it? Did your personality change?

I tried I couldn’t I usually watch 600 pound life and other shows but this is to intense which I’m not squimish I think because I’m doing the sleeve mentally it’ll give me anxiety so after my surgery I’ll watch the whole thing. I think it’s cool you have a video about your own surgery just saying lol

Ok I’m gonna watch it wish me luck

Quick question what’s the straw debate? What’s wrong with using a straw

LMAO food funerals I love it I will plan accordingly

Im a bring it on B*tches type a girl (well im from NYC) 1) Give it no power ignore her and if not rise up and tell her off. 2) She must see you as weak. I see you as a decent human being not everyone has the power to fight back you are beautiful, you are loved and you are important. 3) You cant change her you can only change yourself so dont discuss yourself with her she doesnt need to know that you had surgery if shes in your close circle of friends tell your REAL friends that this takes alot of mental work to be on this journey you will not except her negativity in you vicinity. 4) You control your world. Take it on Good luck you got this you are strong, you are beautiful, you are loved. Looking forward to Life

Cant relate completely cause I havent had my surgery but I had cancer bought 3 wigs and never wore them I think they didnt fit my personality since im so real I felt like I had a dead rat on my head lol I rocked the bald head my husband has a shaved head we just went twinsy. With that said 90% of people rocked the wig they needed it for there confidence I say do whatever makes you comfortable. With that said our skin is an organ so we need to nourish it. I do a daily routine of olive oil, coconut oil, castor oil, argan oil all over my body and scalp, feet every crevice my a$$, my neck my hair is super thick soft and my skin is tight and nourished i apply and let it soak in 30 minutes to an hour I sit in a chair with shorts and a tank in the living room so i wont get oil on my sofas i warm a towel in the dryer and wrap my hair also. Sounds like a sh*tload of work but I do more natural stuff no lotions, deoderant etc after I had cancer and my skin is flawless. TMI again my apologies Looking Forward to Life
