One of my close friends had gastric bypass 5 years ago. Most people in our circle of friends only acted supportive to her face. They would tell everyone her business, gossip about her, judge her. These are her best friends! She lost 150 pounds. She is beautiful. Most people are jealous and still talk behind her back. 5 years later gastric bypass still defines her. ..even if she doesn't realize the whispers/snide remarks. People call her anorexic and judge everything she eats still. She also gets those snide compliments. "You look great, you're so lucky you got gastric bypass" "I wish I could lose weight by doing nothing" "oh sweetie you look like you are starving to death" Every time she is sick gastric bypass is to blame. So I almost laugh when someone says everyone is supportive....I still think people just pretend. I moved away and am not in this circle of friends anymore. When I go visit they STILL talk about her "she looks like she is gaining weight" My husband knows and one child knows I had the sleeve. I will never tell anyone else. I'm looking out for myself only, not giving everyone something to talk about. ......just my experience and opinion

Thank you for replying. I'm happy I am not alone I feel much better than I did the first week *death warmed over* Everyone keeps promising it is uphill from here. ...I'm holding them to it

Also I'm having a hard time posting lol the font is white and the background is white. I'm blind posting......been reading for 2 weeks this is my first post. My bmi is now 33 which makes me soooo happy! I am not hungry at all....bUT I'm so tired/weak I feel like I'm starving to death. Am I the only one?

Is been 3 weeks. .......I feel tired all the time. ...I've lost 25 pounds which is awesome I love chicken soup I could eat it forever.....just tired still. Anyone else?
