There are two quotes love in regards to this weight loss journey
"Comparison is thief of joy," and "Men have become the tools of their tools."
This is "your" journey and someone else is on "their" journey... You are not on the same race track, even though you are running the same type of race. Everything about your race and everything about their race is completely different. Don't lose sight of your own journey, race, goals, etc... by comparing yourself to the differences of others.
Where you are today, is not where you will be tomorrow. Don't let someone else's today steal your hope for tomorrow.

This is probably an unpopular option and Maybe I’m the minority but I honestly don’t feel empathy for obese people.
I didn’t get to almost 300 lbs by accident. I ate my way there! I put every item in my own mouth, maybe I hated myself for doing it, but no one else made me fat, except for me. Why should I ask people to feel compassion for me as I’m actively killing myself day after day? Honestly, I wouldn’t have wanted some strangers sympathetic eyes. I knew what I was. I didn’t/don’t need them to feel sorry for me.

I was given one in the hospital and honestly, it helped me tremendously... I carry most of my weight in my stomach and all that weight just pulled on me after surgery, having lots and lots of scar tissue cut/burned through (I've had three classic c-sections) did not help the pulling/burning sensation either. The binder helped keep everything taut so it the weight of my stomach didn't make me hurt worse. I would take it off at different intervals of the day, but if I was up moving around, I had it on for the support.
I wouldn't say it's necessary but if it's something you want to try, go for it. Either you like/need the support or you don't like/need it.

To be honest, now that I'm actually losing weight, I'm just thrilled to actually be losing weight, I'll take whatever my body gives me. I didn't realise this until now but because every diet has failed me, including the lapband, a part of me didn't believe the bypass would work either. So I never dared to dream of actually making it to a goal weight. I'm only now daring to let myself think it might be possible.
