Although I'm not there yet, this is a fear I have as well of all the hanging skin. I know I will have some, I've been fat my entire life, I'm in my 30's so it's not going to bounce back, it's been stretched for too long. I'm scared. But I think even though we see the hanging skin and stretch marks, we have to think of how much healthier we are becoming, how many more years we've added back into our lives. It is a start with complimenting you on your hair. Give it time, he will come around. You are a beautiful woman, now you need to start believing it. I've been thinking of going to a therapist to work these things out. Maybe it's something you could look into as well, if only to build up your confidence. You are an inspiration and I thank you for sharing your story. Write down your goals, baby steps ☺

Thank u. Your words mean alot to me. I ordered hip hop abs last night cause I need to try to get that fun and younger side to me. I'm pretty much thinking going back to therapy would be good for me I had been seeing someone before surgery but haven't went in a while. I got up earlier this morning to try to put makeup on. I have my Spanx under my scrubs and ready to face the day.

      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.
