Will I Ever Enjoy Food Again?
brandy88 replied to NikkiC's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I enjoy food, harder bc can't eat much but enjoy food. -
It's hard, somedays I'm like yes I've lost ... And other I'm like you still have this to go..but thank you
-
I am 2 1/2 months out and I look in mirror and think I'm still fat, and know it wouldn't change over night and even tho I'm half way to goal... I fear I will fail like every other time. I watch what I eat ( had a few bad days) and I'm active. But I feel like I should be smaller at this point, and that those bad days shouldn't of happened and I feel guilty etc.., yet I think I'm human, then think that's the fat girl talking... ..

No every other time was just crazy diets

I have no issues with bread

Weight loss... Weigh in with your opinions.
brandy88 replied to devine.adon's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Don't let others change your mind. If you follow the plan you will loose weight. Not everyone will drop 100 pounds in few months , after all you didn't gain over night. I feel like I'm a slow loser and feel down that when I look in mirror I still see a fat girl but I'm 2 mo out and down 43lbs. -
Is anyone planning to have their gallbladder removed when you have your surgery?
brandy88 replied to WeeWers's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I had mine removed when I was sleeved. But mine was already bad, and doctor had no issue taking out during just made surgery little longer. -
No regrets and if your worried you will you need to take more time to think about. It's a major choice, and a life changing one. I have been lucky no vomiting, or gas etc. and I can handle all foods but others can't so all depends on person. I read up on and was on forums for almost a year before I was sleeved. I'm happy with my choice, even tho people passed judgement on me for having each person knows there own personal struggles. I'm little over two months out down 43.3 lbs and everyday get closer to what I want. Best of luck

Yesterday my 11yr came home from his grandparents and hugged me and said hey mom I can fit my arms all the way around you. I was sad at first thinking I was so big my child couldn't hug me? And then thought not anymore.

I totally understand my kids have always known me fat, and really started getting to me when my 4yr was telling me I was fat or your belly is big. I would tell him that's not nice , but kids have no filter and are way more truthful than adults.
