  8. Most absurd thing people said to you when you told them you were having WLS?

    spowell replied to mytime4me's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
    I'm so sorry! People are mean! I haven't had negative comments made to me (that I know of ).Y family that knows has been very supportive. My husband told more.people in the beginning than I did because he's so proud of me. My MIL said she can't wait to see me (I was sleeved 12/5). I am a slow weight loser though.

  25. Psychological evaluation

    spowell replied to evy17's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
    I worried about the psych eval but it wasn't as bad as I thought. I found the questions to be more about drugs and alcohol and how do we cope with things. I've never had a drug or alcohol problem. Tell the truth. They will find a way to ask the same question multiple times and in multiple ways. That was my experience. I don't know if all tests are the same. Sent from my SM-G900V using the BariatricPal App

  31. PCOS after having surgery

    spowell replied to Wuisgettingsleeved's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
    Possibly! I've been getting my face waxed every 2 weeks for a.long time. I had my Sleeve done on 12/5. Last week when I went for a face wax, my hair stylist mentioned that my facial hair is not as bad. So we are trying 3 weeks between face waxes. My primary Dr already took me off metformin (I take for PCOS ) because my levels look. I don't know about infertility because I am 47. Sent from my SM-G900V using the BariatricPal App
