    Coverup Procedure/Hiding the truth

    Each person is different and handles it differently, but, my opinion is that I just don't understand the people that cover it up. Just be honest about what's going on and leave it at that. I'm an open book and honestly have not received any negative criticism for my life choices. Honestly, if I did I wouldn't care anyway. This is my life and my choice. Be who you are.

    Hospital Stay?

    It happened with me as well! No worries girl! The day will get here and it will fly! I remember having to wait an additional 2 months. I thought it would drive me nuts but it really flew by! Just relax and treat yourself before then Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

    May bypass group!

    I originally took 3 weeks but knew it wouldn't be enough so I had my dr write me a note for 6 weeks and filed for STD through work. So glad I did. Im still off for another week and feeling 90% better than I did in week 3! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

    Hospital Stay?

    It really depends on your body and surgeon but for RNY it's typically 2 nights. I had some issues my surgeon was concerned with so I ended up staying 5 nights. It was brutal. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

    May bypass group!

    @carelabre It sounds like scar tissue? It's around the incision? When I had a c section with my daughter that happened around my incision. It was a very hard lump across but went down with time and healing. That's what it sounds like to me if you're not having any accompanying symptoms Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

    What was your rate of loss?

    It definitely depends on your starting weight. My doctors office prefers to go by percentages for this reason. The heavier you are, the more weight you will lose. My sw at surgery was 260 and I'm now at 235. 25 lbs over 25 days. I've been losing a lb a day Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

    Who do you share the news with?

    I'm very open with my surgery. I'm not sure why some people choose to keep it private, but, every person is different. For me, this is part of who I am and is now forever who I am. I'm proud of my decisions. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
