I thought this was a good thing
My husband is the only one who knows about my surgery. I had dinner with some of my friends last night. They were discussing how they need to lose weight (I was unusually quiet). My one friend said well I am just going to have gastric surgery and take the easy way out and the other said yes! And that is why only my husband knows.

Date night
Well I planned a surprise date night for Saturday. We start with a couples massage. We move to dinner (where I plan to have chicken poblano soup) then end the night with making a pottery piece at Sunshine Glaze. Hope my husband likes it!

How much did you lose the first 3-4 months? I want to be out of the 200+ Club by summer.
I have been on this forum for about 3 months. I continue to be flabbergasted at the level of negativity and know it alls (who are giving bad information). I am 8 weeks postop and doing well. I guess it it time to leave bariatricpal.
