Hi Leticia,
Trust me I truly understand where ur coming from. On surgery day I weighed 237..I lost a considerable amount the first couple of weeks. Its now been a year and weigh 173!!!
I felt unsuccessful as a girlfriend of mines looked like she was just dropping pounds with each minute!!
It wasn't until another friend (post-op 5 yrs) pointed out to me "hey your weigh loss is slow and steady" that's a better look for u"
Then u can't compare ur self to others your may not be as rapid as someone else bc u don't have as much to lose or maybe you were already pretty much eating a healthier diet and your body is taki gits time to re-adjust.
Don't be so hard on urself. Trust me the weight is coming off. What made it real for me is I went window shopping with a girlfriend. I was trying on size 10 and some 8s.she left the dressing and came back with a 6!!!!!! Can u believe the nerve of HER!?
And I COULD fit it!!?? Can u believe the nerve of me?
So joy DOES come in the morning...good luck & congrats. .
Hi Alex,
After careful thought and consideration, yes, I would do it again. I haven't really had any complications my weight loss is slow and steadily coming off (preferred method). I am able to do things I haven't been able to do in a while. . It forces me to focus on me! No matter what is going on around me
Over all I haven't had a bad experience. .its only reminds me of how I was living pre-babies.
