What do you guys say to people that say your taking the "easy" way out? I have one of those people at my job. She is the one that is always saying to my face how great I look. Then behind my back tells everyone I took the easy way out. I dont know about you guys but this isnt easy. I love the process but I dont think its easy.

They don't know all of the hard work that you put into it. I have learned to smile and tell them Politely you really don't know what I've been through and walk away. My friends that know me they know all the hell I've been through and have never said you took the easy way out. Ps she is probably jealous.

Sometimes it's concern hidden in those off handed remarks. And sometimes it's really how people who don't understand feel about WLS and it's recipients, but in this case it's jealously...pure and simple.

Don't worry about her...she may learn to eat her own words one day...

All the best.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
