  4. Anxiety in life, risk for alcoholism and risk of anorexia, there will not be comfort in food anymore so they need to check that you are otherwise comforted. Sent from my SM-G550T using the BariatricPal App

  7. Ive told all my close friends and my immediate family, there is no sense in hidding it, they know i exercise and they know I diet, I guess I am just lucky nobody told me any BS Sent from my SM-G550T using the BariatricPal App
  8. I dont see why you would feel like you are letting anyone down, your boss already gave you the green light, so dont stress over it, you have other things to worry about, it sounds very unproffesional on their part to be acting that way. Worst case scenario, consider telling her what surgery it is Sent from my SM-G550T using the BariatricPal App

  12. Thanks, I feel so anxious, I just want to get it done. I'm excited and mainly hungry. Sent from my SM-G550T using the BariatricPal App
  13. Im at the hospital registering for 1/5/17, super nervious and anxious. Im sure I will be fine but still. Pray for me. [emoji16]
  14. Prayers from texas! You will be healthy and strong, hope that there are no complications and minimal pain. God Bless.???? Sent from my SM-G550T using the BariatricPal App
  15. Lap band has many possible complications, if there is a choice to be made choose between bypass and sleeve not the band. Bypass is for someone looking to loose 100 lbs and sleeve if you are looking to loose 60 or 80. Sent from my SM-G550T using the BariatricPal App
  16. You really don't want open. It's an 8-10" scar versus 5 very small incision, a slower recovery, higher risk of infection, higher risk of hernias. Just follow your surgeon's instructions. Think of it as success training for the rest of your life. The phrase and thinking "it's not that bad" is a slippery slope! 16 pounds is awesome. Keep going! Sent from my iPad using the BariatricPal App Thanks, im just having food withdrawals Sent from my SM-G550T using the BariatricPal App Withdrawals are so understandable. I've said it before, doing this over the holidays makes you a total superhero!Im attending college so its really the only break i have, i didnt want to have tis stress while I had senior classes for civil engineering, and risk repeating a class or even the semester Sent from my SM-G550T using the BariatricPal App

  19. My surgeon said that if the liver doesnt shrink he would just do open instead of laparoscopic. So its not that bad. But I hope I can reach the size he wants, so far ive lost 16 pounds just with the liquid diet. Sent from my SM-G550T using the BariatricPal App
  20. Dark red BM may be due to bleeding along the colon. If the problem persists, you are bleeding into your stomach. Get it checked Sent from my SM-G550T using the BariatricPal App
