Thank you. Do you feel hungry? Congrats on the lbs you dropped ! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

So I'm following all the directions and walking at least 8,000 steps a day and barely losing any weight! Did anyone go through this and end up losing a good amount of weight after surgery? I'm scared to fail Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I think it's more jealousy and a true friend would not disappear during the time you need a friend the most. I'm sure you wouldn't Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I'm also from NEW YORK you look good before and after

She's obviously being condescending...not cool at all Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I kinda envy anyone who can be open about the surgery as for me I have to keep mine a total secret because of negativity or jealousy. I literally don't have anyone I can lean on for support. My mother hung up on me when I told her I was thinking about it. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I'm also scheduled on the 12th. I'm on my liquid diet and I'm starving Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Welcome. I live in the city as well. Hi! Are you pre op or post op? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App I'm nearly four years out from lapband surgery. If you look at my profile, you will see that I lost around 135 lbs. I've been in maintenance for about 2 1/2 years and until recently, stayed within 5 lbs. of my ideal weight. I am struggling now because I'm in a new relationship and enjoying eating out and all the other fun stuff that comes with romance. I plan on stopping the madness because some of my clothes no longer fit and I will not start that nonsense again...having clothing in several sizes because my weight yo-yo's. Fortunately, my band will help me to get my weight back to where it needs to be. I just have to be more vigilant. It's true with WLS as it's true with any 'lifestyle' change. Losing the weight is easy. Keeping it off is hard. Wow congratulations on the weight loss! I totally understand where your coming from except this will be my first time going for surgery. The yo-yo thing is the worst constantly battling with clothes / sizes. Starting all over again for the hundredth time. I have been in the best shape before and now I'm at the worst.

Right...you just don't know how your body will react to the surgery that's the risk we take but it's a risk I'm willing to take. I hope and pray that my body reacts positively this is where my faith has to kick in Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
