Gastric sleeve or Duodenal Switch? Which surgery to have...
HatheryOnHerWay replied to mcg968's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
The sleeve size is generally pretty similar regardless of bougie size used. The only people I've heard of who have especially large sleeves are folks with lots of scar tissue from the lap band or who have anatomically "long" stomachs. -
The new me ! Pictures included

Looking GREAT!! -
As much as you don't want to, I think this is going to require sitting down and having a long conversation. Sometimes this surgery can affect our significant others in ways we didn't expect.

I think this was posted in the wrong subforum

Has the sleeve not worked for you?
HatheryOnHerWay replied to tannak's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I think that's pretty common for lap-to-sleeve patients, unfortunately. That band can really wreak havoc on the poor stomach! -

Fat Shaming actually increases risk of becoming or staying obese, new study
HatheryOnHerWay replied to cindymg's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I totally believe that!! -
Stretched stomach?
HatheryOnHerWay replied to Mom2Twins's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
My advice is to learn from your mistake and realize fried rice is a trigger food for you. -
Nothing will happen to you; the sugar may not sit well with some people, though. You'd do better to get your chocolate fix from a protein bar or something like that. Otherwise it's just a lot of extra carbs.

"Head Hunger"
HatheryOnHerWay replied to TawneyEverett's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Head hunger hasn't gone away for me. When I recognize head hunger, I drink something instead and it goes away. That's not exactly useful when you're on the liquid diet, though!! -
At least your country gives health insurance to its people haha

I LOVE MY TICKER, ETC. :-)

I really like to update my ticker, too -

Meh, if my hair falls out that'll give me an excuse to buy and wear a cute Korean fashion wig.

grocery shopping...

The frozen entrees might be making you retain water. Very high sodium. -
1-2 lbs consistently?
HatheryOnHerWay replied to shannon crotts's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My surgeon told me 1-2 pounds a week would be the ideal loss at my stage. I got sleeved 5/22. So be happy--you're right on track! -
Having lunch with an out of state friend the 1st day of my soft diet...
HatheryOnHerWay replied to marfar7's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
If you don't want to raise suspicion, you could be sneaky and just eat the broth. -
What I find ironic is how many sleevers like to complain when someone calls WLS the "easy way out", but then get upset that it isn't just that. Guess what? Your weight will always be a struggle--FOR LIFE!! The pounds won't fall off in a week, and when they're gone it still requires hard work to keep them gone.

Wow, you stole my "before" body!! -
The shock to me wasn't so much that I liked to eat; I mean, I knew I liked the flavors and whatnot. I didn't realize just how pleasure I got from eating large QUANTITIES of food, and being able to finish my whole plate. That's what came as the biggest surprise to me.
