Why is it that we need to do stay so low on fat? I eat nuts as a snack and they're pretty high in fat but good for us. Just curious Sent from my SM-G930T using the BariatricPal App

I still have about 68 lbs to go so I'm sure the less you weigh the slower you will lose Sent from my SM-G930T using the BariatricPal App

I did my surgery in Tijuana Mexico. If you want to know the info let me know. Good job quitting. Your new life is getting closer! Sent from my SM-G930T using the BariatricPal App

Glad to hear it!! Sent from my SM-G930T using the BariatricPal App

Woohoo! Sent from my SM-G930T using the BariatricPal App

My weight was also 291. Surgery was 289 and now I'm at 218. I don't know when I was this small, but it's been many years and feels great. I hope you're feeling better about your choice. I've lost 60 lbs like 5 times, and I always gain it back. I don't have enough experience at this point to say I haven't gained it back after the sleeve, but i have little doubt that I can successfully keep it off if I stick with my program and don't try and cheat the sleeve!

When we're you sleeved? Sent from my SM-G930T using the BariatricPal App

I'm 29, just had surgery 3 months ago. I'm actually looking forward to turning 30. I'm looking forward to life now that I'm feeling better, down 70 lbs. Unless you're going to be able to change your ways tonight and get on track on your own, the surgery might be your best bet. Sent from my SM-G930T using the BariatricPal App

Anything WHITE.. bread, rice, chips, Pasta, fries, etc. It's all bad. If it's white, it ain't right. Most simple carbs are slider foods for me Sent from my SM-G930T using the BariatricPal App

Wow. That is so tragic about John. I'm very sorry. Your attitude is inspiring. Sent from my SM-G930T using the BariatricPal App

4th of July didn't go so well for me, had a few chips and guacamole and a couple bites of a pupusa. Since my vacation a week ago I haven't lost. I'm up 1 lb from when I left but hoping it'll come off. It's weird bc I'm trying to get back on track today with my routine but I feel hungrier than I did before and it scares me.

Lol you'll feel crappy on post op, but not because you're hungry lol! You'll feel crappy cause you're full after 3 sips of broth and you'll be uncomfortable.. or bc of head hunger.. like oh I want taco bell but you'll know you can't ever eat that. You'll be just fine, and definitely not hungry. Sent from my SM-G930T using the BariatricPal App

What kind of post-op care are you getting?I'm not doing really any follow up care except with my PCP, which is basically blood work and I can call him if somethings wrong, but haven't had anything yet except the blood work. This forum and the Internet helps me a lot with questions that come up, especially in the early days when you think everything is a complication Sent from my SM-G930T using the BariatricPal App

That last sentence just sounded wrong lol Sent from my SM-G930T using the BariatricPal App

Just take it easy, stay focused and be nice to yourself... that doesn't mean with food! It's normal to feel tired at this stage Sent from my SM-G930T using the BariatricPal App

If I could have lost the weight without surgery, I would have. I def think it was my only choice. If you feel the same, you're making the right decision I think. Sent from my SM-G930T using the BariatricPal App

How are you doing now? Sent from my SM-G930T using the BariatricPal App

I wanted to see if you are feeling any better since posting this.. any updates? Sent from my SM-G930T using the BariatricPal App

I legit wanted to cancel my surgery right before too. I did mine in Mexico, so I had sent the deposit and I was still close to just saying forget it. I'm only 3 months out, but 70 lbs down and super happy with my choice. You will always have the choice to regain your weight you lose.. just remember it's on you, and you still will be the one in charge.. not fate! Sent from my SM-G930T using the BariatricPal App

Are you in maintenance phase? Sent from my SM-G930T using the BariatricPal App

Glad everyone is doing well. I am down 70 lbs. I went on vacation for a week and didn't do too well with alcohol and some of my food choices but I'm back on track now and I think those extra calories will actually help my weight loss as I'm returning to my regular eating this week. I am 40 lbs away from a normal bmi and 70 away from goal.. hope to hear from more of you! Sent from my SM-G930T using the BariatricPal App
