Odie 249 Posted December 20, 2016 Everyone on this site is, for the most part, very supportive!! You can ask question or just check in at times. Be prepared though that if you ask for approval for something you know is not good for you, you will receive brutally honest, constructive replies!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lynyrdgolightly 1 Posted December 20, 2016 Thanks guys! I've been dealing with a lot of negativity towards my decision of having WLS from friends and family. So it's nice to have a support system like this:) Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Only a handful of people know. I will never tell most people that I did it in Mexico but even at 6 days post op I would do it again.

happynfree1996 6 Posted December 20, 2016 Anyone have issues with dumping after sleeve ? I think it might be sugar in Gatorade or sugar in yogurt Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G750A using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
