This is me too, unfortunately. Sleeved in 2016 and have seen steady incline—most rapidly in the past four months. My first step was to go to my surgeon’s office, talk about the program with someone that understands what I’m supposed to be doing (I’ve had almost zero group support). Now I’m back here, trying to refocus and get healthy again!

Mortification in the gym...
Mega_100 replied to LEILE's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I had/have the same problem since having a kid and use descreet pads. Really just a regular pad that blocks odors. I can say that, since losing 70 pounds, it has gotten considerably better. Good luck with your exercise--that's great that you're getting out there! -

October List of Surgery's
Mega_100 replied to 60&goin4it's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hello fellow October '15 sleevers! Found this list of snack ideas and there are few in there that sounded good, that I hadn't thought of, some maybe amped up with a little unflavored protein. Anyway, thought I'd share: http://greatist.com/health/100-calorie-snacks -
Weighing in today at 181.6. May I change my goal weight to 170, please? [emoji16]

Good to know there might be more options out there, thanks -
PTSD or Compulsive Eating Disorder Sleevers?
Mega_100 replied to Marie2016's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
You're right. I think if there was a huge financial strain, it would really distract me and make me uncomfortable. I've known since I was very young that I needed therapy, but have ignored it bc I didn't want to deal with my issues. This opportunity has really made me want to focus on the positive experience and depression and compulsive eating is getting in the way. -
PTSD or Compulsive Eating Disorder Sleevers?
Mega_100 replied to Marie2016's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I agree, having someone familiar with eating issues and bariatric surgery would be ideal. I really liked the doc I went to pre-op for the psych eval, but she isn't in-network unfortunately and finances are definitely a factor. -

How did y'all go about finding a good therapist? I would ask my surgeon's office, but they are out of town and I need to be in-town/in-network. I've googled my area, but there are so many I don't know where to start. -

@@bdcsail, do you mind me asking who your surgeon was? Or do you have surgeon recommendations? I'm still quite a ways away from plastics, but thought I'd start researching and Toronto isn't that far from me. TIA! -

How many days off work ?
Mega_100 replied to Amayor85's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I told them I needed surgery (didn't say what) and took a week and a half off. I wish I would have taken a full 2 weeks or maybe even 3. I was just so tired and would have dizzy spells at work bc I wasn't concentrating on getting my fluids in. But you'll find that everyone will give you a different answer bc everyone recovers differently. Good luck! -
Who do you want to be after?
Mega_100 replied to Nurse_Lenora's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
Lol, I think anyone can say that about any size anything. I literally just said that yesterday when I was looking for a large. Granted I was looking at athletic gear in January. Lol again -
Let us know how you like them! ????
