Friends... did you lose any :(



Recommended Posts

our relationship has been strained for years and so I won't miss her at all. I've totally written her out of my life and I sleep well at night. I'm not stressing over it, she's just not worth it to me anymore. I fooled myself for a few years and forgave a LOT of crap she did to me, including almost destroying my family. Not even exaggerating here, she literally almost destroyed my family. I forgave but never forgot and now that she's pulled this crap I decided it was time to stop taking it on the chin and letting her walk all over me and just end our relationship.

So yeah, it's hard but honestly, who needs negativity in their lives? I certainly don't. I want positive people around me and people that support me. Anything else is a waste of my time and energy...energy that I'd rather spend helping others. ;)

I have known a few ppl that have had this problem. It can be threatening to the "friend" when they hear you're going to have surgery. Some of it is jealousy and some of it is fear of being left behind. This seems to be more the case when the friend is one that you have spent years dieting with. If it is a true friend, things will work out. Because any real friend would want to see you healthier and happier.

Keeping in mind that misery loves company. That addadge didn't come from no where. Keep positive people in your life and for those that are negative all the time about life and about you, well to put it bluntly, you don't need them. If you can make her life a more positive then so be it but if you can't then you are better off.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
