    Unsupportive mother

    I had my sleeve over a year ago and i have never told my mother, she would see it as a failure that I could not lose the weight on my own. Which is sooo wrong. Bariatric surgery is a tool, YOU have to continue the course, be active, maintain a healthy diet to keep the weight off. It's not a golden ticket to being skinny forever. If you have done the research, have decided that you want to improve your overall physical and mental health then have the surgery. then do it. I hope you have other support people in your life. I am a grown married woman with grown children. You need to do what you need to do to be healthy,make your own choices. Thank goodness my husband and children are supportive, I wish it would have done it sooner.

    regretting my sleeve

    I understand your feelings, you are just realizing what control of food had on you. Your relationship with food has changed, it will get better, you did this surgery for a reason. If your doctor has a support group I recommend attending. Even all the classes I had prior to the surgery could not mentally prepare me for what I was about to experience. I had similar feelings, but you will feel better stay the course. Hang in there. You can do this, You are strong.

    9 Months out With Severe Constipation

    Had a terrible time with constipation, I finally have found the solution that has been working for me the last 2 months. I do miralax in my coffee every morning, and eat a small piece of my "life changing loaf of bread" every other day. In the beginning I ate it everyday, but now I don't need to. With all that good flax seed, etc and the psyllium seed husks, it keeps things moving. I make a loaf , cut it up in small slices and put the whole thing in the freezer to last longer. I love it, 1/2 slice toasted, yum. http://www.mynewroots.org/site/2013/02/the-life-changing-loaf-of-bread/

    Not Freaking Out Over Stalls

    I just try to keep in mind, "I didn't gain this weight overnight... it's not going to come off overnight". The surgery is a tool, it is up to YOU to eat the right foods and be active. You have to be in it to win it! Just keep on moving forward! We got this!
