  1. I did sleeve, same problems. I had options of all three but was not comfortable with having my guts rearranged. Doc gave me the choice. Have lost 150 # in 18 months and all weight issues are now gone. You are correct when thinking doc knows best but what are you comfortable with? Your body your choice. Can recommend you research all options. I did and chose accordingly. Good luck!
  2. No, was a guy. A girl saying it would not have bothered me.
  3. Sometimes it makes me very uncomfortable. This morning I got "nice jeans". What is that suppose to mean????

    Could be you are just thirsty. Try sipping water when it happens. Could also be acid reflux. Good luck!

    Anyone NOT lose their hair?

    I lost a lot of hair, but since I have seriously thick hair I didn’t worry. It is growing back in now. A friend of mine was not so lucky but hers is growing back nicely too

    I have a low fat single serving of cottage cheese. 19 grams of protein 6 grams sugar. Just read the labels before buying.

    Unflavored Protein

    Unjury unflavored worked well for me. Very easy to use.
  9. I am a boredom eater. I still fight it but it’s not so hard anymore. Every time I think I want to eat ( and I know I don’t) I get busy. 18 months post op it’s up to me to control. Luckily I am never hungry so I follow a schedule for eating and drink water in between. This has worked well so far. I am also chained to a desk 5 days a week 😖. I have heard over eaters anonymous really helps. Good luck!
  10. Best decision I have ever made! Yes it was difficult the first couple of months but it gets better. Almost 18 months post op and have lost half my body weight. Feel great, no more meds and energy thru the roof. Hang in and keep up the good work!
  11. You look great! Know how you feel, no meds anymore and I can be on the go all day and I feel fantastic.

    Comparison

    You are doing great! Do not listen to these people. My problem is hearing "I know someone that had that surgery, they regained all the weight". Makes me want to say STFU! Last thing any of us need is to be compaired with other people. Keep up the good work!
