College And Surgery



Recommended Posts

im attending classes right now. i went back for a full class 3.5hours 6 days post op. im more concerned about how it will affect my social life? thanks im sure this will work out

That depends on what you mean.

Short term: let's be honest here, this IS a sacrifice. When all your buddies go out drinking, for a while, you can be the designated driver. When they all want to hit up the local fast food chain, you likely will feel out of place or just won't go

Long term: you will have a longer, healthier life. You will do things & have experiences that you would likely never have otherwise. You won't be where many of us are right now having the surgery in our 30's, 40's, & 50's looking back saying " why the hell didn't I do this sooner.

I wish I could tell you this won't affect your social life. But, hey, aren't you in college now to improve your future? What's the major difference? Except the sleeve has a much better success rate.
