I just came from the clearance from my primary care physician (sleeve surgery in one week) - I hadn't seen him since the clearance for my band removal surgery in April. He made a big fuss about me gaining 10+ lb gain. I was feeling awful enough myself but the hunger was incredible. I've been cutting back and going low carb the past week but I am still up a lot. My surgeon said it was to be expected. Just feel awful now - next tuesday can't come fast enough.

Thank you! I feel so dumb for being back here AGAIN being fat-shamed. Also I didn't get his point- I know I have a problem that is why I hot a lap band 8 years ago and lost 100lbs and maintained for a long time. That is why I'm having 85% of my stomach removed!!
