    I agree. Depression and mental health play a huge part in your recovery process. Its amazing how your mood can dictate how much or how little you can eat and things like that. I used to eat when i was depressed now If I am feeling down or something eating becomes a chore. I didnt notice at first.

    Im good on my diet and not eating like crap. The issue is the textures of foods, the smells, the amounts vary from day to day with the amount that I can eat.

    Haven't posted in a long while. I am approaching 6 years post op. I have had lots of ups and downs. Generally I am pleased and I have not put weight back on. I was about 350 prior to surgery and I float in between 160 and 170 pounds. Eating is still a struggle but its something you learn to deal with. I hope everyone is doing well and receiving the support that is needed. If I can help anyone the way that I was helped and supported by this forum, I would gladly help.

    It is a constant, daily task and adjustment to make. There is no simple guideline or answer. Things change and you have to be able to flow with it. One thing that I have learned is that a good support system is needed so that you aren't on an island completely alone. You will feel that you are on a island alone though!

    Hi All,
    My name is Danielle, age 25, and I am a sleeve post-op who has lost 100lbs. Although, I do not find dating difficult I am wanting to date a man who has gone through the same struggles as me but I cant seem to find bariatric men anywhere! I am having body image struggles and I just want somone who understands what that feels like. I use to feel sexier when I was heavier! Anyone who knows a single bariatric guy who is looking for a good time please let me know!

    Before and After pictures always give us something to reach for right?
    Here is a insight to my journey. I wish i wouldve taken more pictures along the way. Show us some of your progress!
    Remember 1 pound lost is 1 pound less then what you had previous and 1 pound closer to your goal!
    Good Day people.

    First costume party ever. I was really happy to get into a costume that didnt involve me being fat. I think my costume was pretty awesome. What do you think?
