After reading your post, what came to my mind is, are you discussing the fact that you are self-sabotaging with your therapist? If so, what did they say? Sent from my SM-G900W8 using BariatricPal mobile app

I think in some ways this forum is a microcosm of our society. Some folks are haters, some folks have your back. I just hope you don't let the few jealous creeps ruin your experience here, because I think you have a great deal of knowledge and experience now that will be invaluable to this community. We've got your back [emoji111] Sent from my SM-G900W8 using BariatricPal mobile app

I disagree. They were saying he wasn't being truthful, which he was. Explain to me how that is encouraging him "to be his best self"? That was hate. Dismiss it if you want to, but it's obvious that's what it is. Sent from my SM-G900W8 using BariatricPal mobile app

You sir are a MACHINE! You've done incredibly well - please keep us posted on your progress please? (And in regards to the haters - sometimes I think people get caught up counting others people's blessings instead of their own. Sad but it happens. Just keep letting your light shine [emoji295]) Sent from my SM-G900W8 using BariatricPal mobile app

Fantastic progress! May I ask what kinds of exercise you've been doing? Whatever it is you're doing - it's sure working!!! Sent from my SM-G900W8 using BariatricPal mobile app

The way I see it, I didn't ask for anyone's input or approval gaining weight, & I see no need to ask for it while I lose it. Sent from my SM-G900W8 using BariatricPal mobile app

Not to be rude, but I was hoping to get advice in regards to a vegan diet. Thanks just the same for your input though [emoji4] Sent from my SM-G900W8 using BariatricPal mobile app

Hi there! I was wondering if you might be able to answer a few questions for me? I am a bit confused as to whether or not it's okay to remain vegan after surgery? I've heard so many people tell me that I'll be unable to get my protein quotas met, and my dietician said it's not even realistic "cutting out entire food groups". *sigh* So I guess what I'm wondering is - are you able to get the required amounts? Also what sorts of supplements do you require daily? Is it the standard post bariatric multis, along with the B's, iron, calcium etc? Many thanks in advance [emoji111] Sent from my SM-G900W8 using BariatricPal mobile app

I've never heard of it put this way, but it sure makes sense. Thanks for writing this [emoji111] Sent from my SM-G900W8 using BariatricPal mobile app
