    Serious Thoughts.....

    I do truly believe that many people get the procedure due to wanting to get someone to notice or think that with this surgery their insecurities will be gone. Society has already made it a trend that smaller is best, instead of healthy is best. So that I believe is where people on here begin to obsess over the rate of weight loss even as little as 5-6 days out. This surgery WILL NOT...I repeat WILL NOT fix mental health issues. And recognizing depression or other mental struggles early in the process, I believe in the end will enhance the weight loss long term. Stress and other mental factors can cause weight gain, ultimately leaving the sleeve ineffective. I personally don’t think that all know they are suffering mentally until after the surgery. So a post op therapist should be something to consider.

    Itchy incisions!

    I’m 9 days out and all of mine peeled off and I wasn’t trying to peel them. I think it’s all about your skin on how the marks will look but I don’t know

  6. You got it. My first 2-3 days were horrid but by day 4 it was much better. Just keep pushing

    Fairlife Milk for Protein?

    That’s awesome!!!! I’m headed to store now!!!!
  8. You got this!!! Just remember your “why”
  9. I had surgery June 6, 2018 and I was extremely miserable the first two days. But my husband took off work and made sure I got up to walk even if only for 2-3 minutes per hour. He bought any and every fluid that I thought may stay down. He never complained, nor made me feel like I was over exaggerating the pain. Yesterday we actually went on (two) 20-30 minute walks and I was able to keep all liquids down. He has been encouraging me and very good with our son. I see so many post about partners not being on board. That’s so awful and I wish they would just support the journey. I don’t know how I would’ve made through this without my husband. Team Work makes the Dream Work 💪🏾

  17. I am feeling better today🤗 hopefully I’ll gain energy Back by Monday
  18. I don’t have staples but I think it may have come from my esophagus. Especially since I could not hold any liquids down.
