    Just noticed from another post that you're in the area. Would love to meet up. Who's your surgeon? I have Dr. Terracina.

    Good morning everyone. I was wondering if anyone nerves started getting to them before surgery? The closer I get the more anxiety I'm having. My official date is August 11. Just about a month out.. I'm not having second thoughts just very very very nervous. Not sure why or what to do. Any advice???[emoji16] [emoji16]

    @@MonicaEMT the first 6-7 months I was tired pretty much all the time because it took me a while to be able to get in the calories my body needed to function. Still, I had no complications or anything. Now I feel freaking amazing and I've lost almost 170 since surgery. I went a size 32 pants to a size 16 pants, and a size 3x-4x shirt to a large or xl shirt. Generally, this whole experience has been scary, difficult, tiring, confusing, and completely wonderful. It's been a whirlwind of change in such a short time, but all for the better.

    Seriously. I hear you on this. If one more person tells me I look too skinny I'm going to lose my shit SMH. I'm 5 foot 3 and 148 pounds because I recently gained 3 pounds and I'm still getting these bullshit comments. Don't people realize it's rude to say someone looks too skinny just like it is to say someone looks too fat? Especially a person that used to be fat and then tell them that now they look too fucking skinny!!

Anyone else having these feelings all together????

    so - I left and rejected all the other bariatric support sites because you were not allowed to say someone was making a dangerous choice.
    this was the ONLY Bariatric support site I found where people are allowed to be real. I value that highly.

    I'm a newbie. I feel like a lot of people are throwing pity parties.
    "What do you mean I can't have fried chicken and mashed potatoes and chocolate cake for dinner????"
    I think the thing I miss the most is grilled cheese. But tough titties I can't have it. I miss Sprite when I'm nauseous (which is like all the time) tough crap I have to live with diluted Gatorade.
    I knew I couldn't be around food early out so I skipped 4th of July and Memorial Day bbqs. Did it suck? Yeah! But I ate my oatmeal and Soup like a champ. food will always be there later.

    The level of whining and hostility from new members does seem to be elevated.
    I am also seeing a lot of comments where it's evident they aren't committed to the effort it's going to take for them to be successful.
