  12. I'm 1 month post op today I don't regret the surgery I just feel sorry that society can just let us feel good about ourselves .. It use to be if you were Plump you were sexy ... I'm not really talking about the whole health problems , this is more about tired of being the largest person at the party or attest thinking you are ... Just a self reelection at this point ... But no regrets I'm on this side now and I'm gonna be the best me I can ... Thanks for the posts ya'all
  13. I was sitting around today thinking about this journey that we have or will embark on called weight loss .... I'm sorry that weight has caused us to have to undergo this type of self dare I say mutilation .... I'm sorry that this world has seen fit to make even medically healthy people just Over weight seek this surgery to be so called normal .... I'm sorry because that is me , 75% was due to possible future health issues but 25% is pure vanity and not wanting to turn 50 and be fat anymore ... I'm sorry that I didn't see the girl my husband has loved for 30 years when I look in the mirror , or the mother that my children adore .. I just say fat ... And I'm sorry .;(
  14. That's really kind of scary I think
  15. Ok so is anyone else having issues with pill sizes now ? I just got back from the dr because I have a sinus infection ( lucky me) I explained to the dr that I recently had sleeve surgery and the meds need to be able to go down so I can't have a huge pill , she said oh no this will be fine .... Then I get to the pharmacy and bam it's huge thank god I had the pharmacist see if I could crush or cut the pill .... Wtf why don't they listen to us ?? Frustrated
  16. Omg I feel horrible for your mom , have a drink for me I'm to scared to
  17. That's not a friend they don't add any value to your life journey so cut them loose .... You made this decision stand by it with pride in knowing why YOU did it ... Move onward we all support you
  18. Ur lucky I would kill to be able to drink that much water I'm almost among out and the water part is still my hardest part ...
  19. That sounds like good advise thank you my friend
  20. Ps u called my med staff they just said it had nothing to do with weight loss surgery it's prob a sinus issue wtf ... I've never had low bp with a sinus infection ... Ya know you choose a place to get surgery because they tell you all the great things they will be there to help you with after you get your surgery , then when you really need them they push you off I'm getting really pissed ... I'm no hypochondriac
  21. My surgery was 9/16 I use to take bp med for high bp but have been off that for about 2 weeks ...water intake is a struggle not up to the 64 oz more like 30 to 35 oz ...
  22. Hi everybody I woke up this morning feeling kind of weak and a bit light headed I took my bp it was 106/66 I am not on meds , it seems kind of low , any thoughts out there ???
