haha I'm in my 30s and newly single. I have no idea what flirting is. I was at the grocery store and a guy started chatting with me. When I left I was like wait, was that flirting?
i met my husband when I was 21 and was with him for 12 years. I have no idea how to flirt or how to recognize if someone is flirting with me

My opinion...not a popular one...is that at your weight I would not have surgery. Most people don't get surgery hoping NOT to loose a lot of weight. For the record my GOAL weight is 200 lbs

I've thought about that. Even if I never hear from him after tomorrow, chatting with him has been fun and a nice little ego boost.

I don't think it's first date information but if i feel like there could be potential for a long term thing i would mention it after a few dates Sent from my LGLS991 using the BariatricPal App

Oh my god you guys I have a date. I've been texting with this guy all weekend and we really hit it off and have a lot on common. We agreed to meet on Tuesday. I'm so nervous. I'm going to go vomit.

Whenever I hear someone say that the surgery was "cheating" or the "easy way out" I just want to tell them
oh really, yeah because going to consultations with the surgeon, a psychologist, nutritionist, cardiologist, pulmonologist, hematologist, rheumatologist...then having numerous blood tests, ekgs, ultrasounds, xrays...then battling with insurance...then dealing with post op issues, not getting to eat the things you like, watching others carelessly shove food into their mouths, walking for half an hour when you have no energy...
oh yeah, that was really easy

I haven't told anyone but my immediate family about my surgery so personally I haven't had many of those comments. But I know others who have
Mainly people seem to think that surgery is "cheating" that you could have just exercised and ate less and that was it. Well that doesn't work for everyone. There are people who can do that and be successful long term, but most people can't. How many of us have cut calories, exercised,starved ourselves, only to have lost just a few pounds.
Surgery is just another tool in the battle to loose weight. All the surgery did was change the shape of my stomach. I still decide what goes in my stomach, and I still have to choose to exercise. I can be bad and eat junk post surgery and gain weight, or I can be good and follow the plan and loose weight. The surgery was just a bit of help, most of the work is still up to me

if done correctly you can't stretch your sleeve. The stretchy part of your stomach is removed
popcorn is a slider food. I can eat a ton of it

So part of your stoimach was cut off and it was stapled shut. Do you understand this? This is abig deal. It needs to heal. Healing like this takes more than a fews weeks or even a few months. Not folfollowing your plan so early on not only shows a lack of commitment and education but could lead to very serious and potentially liufe threatening complications. THIS IS NO JOKE. You need to follow your plan strictly

absolutely. in both threads they have not said that they had any comorbidities. I honestly hope that they did otherwise I would personally be shocked that a doctor would do it otherwise

You should always consult your team. Everyone's plan is different.
I eat salad. I personally find it surprisingly filling. I try just to have a few bites as a side to my Protein.

I don't blame the messenger actually, the message was one of concern. Something like I see he is involved again are you ok. Since their name wasn't their real name I don't know who it was.
I really do appreciate the support here. I don't have many friends and it does help just to get it out.

I received a message from someone on Facebook that I didn't know, but they mentioned that my (soon to be ex) husband is involved in a new relationship. I didn't know who sent me the message and I didn't think much of it...at first. Eventually curiosity got the best of me and I did a tiny bit of looking around. For the record we have been separated for 6 months and have not started formal divorce paperwork yet.
I went to her facebook page and there are tons of pictures of the two of them, hugging, kissing, etc. Now, I hate to say negative things about other people's appearance, but...she's much larger than ever was even before surgery, and her face...well I just hope she has a nice personality. I'm sure I'm biased against her but it was really a kick in the gut. I know I shouldn't feel like this. He cheated on me, he made me feel bad about myself, he disrespected me, he ignored me, he never wanted to spend time with m, ehe put my needs last...I know I'm better off without him. But I feel so rejected and hurt. I can't help this feeling of "you dumped me for THAT?"
I just needed to get that off my chest.
