seaniepoohbear got a reaction from Pinkgirl1234 in Why sleeve and not bypass?
With the sleeve you still have to take Vitamins everyday correct? So what's the difference between taking them with the sleeve and with bypass?

seaniepoohbear got a reaction from ReneK in So annoyed and I need to get over it!
This. Just this.
My husband and best(only friend) are the only ones I even told about looking into bariatric surgery( waiting to see about insurance and how much a consult will be) they were both SOOOO VERY UNSUPPORTIVE.....but he tells EVERYONE. It's not his damn business to share!!! "Well they will know something is up if it does happen" ect well that's MY PLACE to deal with not yours!!
So I come here to talk because nobody else is nice about it

seaniepoohbear reacted to LoseItKacy in I won't regret this...right?
I'm three months out.
I had one of the rougher recoveries. I've had kidney stones from struggles to stay hydrated. I've cried over food more times in the past 10 weeks than I've cried in my life. I've been hormonal as hell. Dumping is boarder line torture.
But you know what, I wouldn't trade this for anything. Feeling normal comes back with time.
I don't have to shop in plus sizes any more.
I'm completely off all my heartburn meds.
I can actually sleep through the night now.
I ran my fastest mile ever my first day back at the gym.
People don't treat me different because of my weight anymore.
I feel more confident.
I have a new healthy relationship with food.
Being on an airplane doesn't hurt anymore or feel awkward.
Working out is actually fun now.
I can take a bath that's more Water instead of fat filling the tub.
I enjoy having people take my picture now.
It's a whole new world but I love it. Don't get me wrong, it's very very hard. But as tough as it's been i would do it again in a heartbeat cuz I'm finally enjoying the life I deserve to have. I also realized we have similar starting stats. I'm 5'6, was 257 at my highest recorded weight. I probably weighed more tho honestly. I got down to 235 on my surgery day. And now I'm 189 10 weeks post op.
