  7. Measure out a serving. Eat slowly and take small bites. You might want to use a small spoon (like an appetizer or toddler spoon), or just use the tip of a regular teaspoon. Put the spoon down between bites. You will start to learn the difference between satisfied and one bite too many. You really don't want to eat until you are "full", but rather until you are satisfied.What does too full feel like? Sent from my SM-N920P using the BariatricPal App

  10. God bless you all. This will be a test but you will pull through. We need to get through our emotional eating. Try in channel your emotions in to something else. Sent from my SM-N920P using the BariatricPal App
  11. What did you decide? I was sleeved on the 5th and I have had my rough days however I am down 20 lbs, off diabetes and blood pressure meds! I go to a local support group once a week and I also talk on here. I may eventually add in some therapy but that is just to take her of me mentally after already choosing to take care of myself physically. Its not going to be easy but after 8 days I am feeling better and lookomg forward to the future. Sent from my SM-N920P using the BariatricPal App

  17. Today makes a week and today I am really depressed. I dont know if it is because it is a week anniversary or what. I find myself not wanting to leave the house. I have left very minimal times to go to my moms and a support group yesterday but otherwise I stay home. I feel cut off from the world but it is me cutting myself off not the other way around. I return to work in two weeks and I dont know how to face people. I feel like I want to stay in the comfort of my own home forever. Sent from my SM-N920P using the BariatricPal App
  18. Thank u so much! Sent from my SM-N920P using the BariatricPal App

  22. I just told one of my friends and he was like why do you want to be skinny? I told him I have too many health problems for being 31 and I need to get them under control so I can live longer. He was like well how skinny are you going to be. I hope you arent like a stick. I know he likes big girls so he doesnt want me to be smaller. I am not changing my mind for anyone especially a man. Did any of you deal with this? How did you handle it?
  23. I have only told my immediate family, my best friend and a couple of my managers. I am not sure what or if I want to say anything. I am on the preop diet and I am already down 22 lbs in 3 months. People are starting to notice the difference but I am telling them the truth that I am making better choices. I work in a store with 250 people and I am in HR so I deal with all of them. I guess I feel like people will judge me for taking the surgery route. I have actually cried telling the few people I told because of embarrassment. I will have surgery in April and I know I wont be able to hide it much longer. Any advice?
  24. I know we are supposed to drink a lot of water after surgery. How much water can you tolerate at one time?
  25. They told me I had to fast at least 24 hours before but I friend of mine did 2 weeks.
