In terms of body positivity. How is it positive what we have done to our body to get so over weight ? I say we because I put all kinds of **** in my mouth. To me body positivity is about looking after our body and taking the steps to make it the best it can be. Body positivity isn't just about "yes this is my body and I love it " I love my body. So for me. This surgery showed my body love and I'm working from the inside out. You already have bad knees and out of breath at 32. Your so young. To me that isn't showing your body love. Your poor knees doesn't feel loved carrying all that weight. Neither did my back. 20 years from now you may struggle more. But this is just my opinion. You know what's best for you but consider the whole picture. Sent from my Vivo 5R using BariatricPal mobile app

Is it possible to be healthy and 300 lbs on your little frame ? Your risks are increased you know that. Your health is at risk . You might be healthy now but we all have reduced our life expectancy by being fat. If your okay with that don't have the surgery and live your life. I decided to make the change at 244lbs because for me. I have two kids and my risks of illness was getting worse and worse. What you do is upto you . Not everyone feels ugly and fat to have this surgery it's about better health but it's an amazing bonus to start looking cute while getting healthy. Good luck.

Gas pain two months post op. I don't think so. They inflate your stomach but not two months worth. Sent from my Vivo 5R using BariatricPal mobile app

Are you going to tell is what your eating. Can't suggest things to change not knowing what your doing. Sent from my Vivo 5R using BariatricPal mobile app

I saw it on the app !! Thought I'd clicked the wrong language or something Sent from my Vivo 5R using BariatricPal mobile app

That would make me bloated. Even though it's flat. ( 4 months post. ) What is causing the tummy ache Sent from my Vivo 5R using BariatricPal mobile app

You have not completed the three month requirement to LOSE WEIGHT. You gained. The idea is to lose weight in those 3 months. There for. You need to commit to longer to achieve the requirements. Doesn't seem complicated. Sent from my Vivo 5R using BariatricPal mobile app

Have you addressed why you gained 4 lbs ? I'm four months post. We have to stick to the rules after. It's not easier to be honest. More risks with post op risk of leak etc. This is life changing. This opportunity. I'd discuss why your risking it not working out. What are you eating ? I didn't even have to lose weight for mine but I chose to. Maintaining is one thing. But gaining .. therapy is important. Or talking honestly here. Good luck Sent from my Vivo 5R using BariatricPal mobile app

Snap to everything . Also visabily handicapped . I already deal with extra judgment why would any other kind suddenly bother me lol people already think I'm sick being young and using a chair so who cares. Sent from my Vivo 5R using BariatricPal mobile app

Why do I give a **** what anyone guesses are they paying my bills ? I don't think so. I couldn't care less what anyone assumes. Sent from my Vivo 5R using BariatricPal mobile app

Telling some nosey doogooder gossiper isn't educating anyone. Because I choose not to tell unimportant people doesn't mean I don't support the opportunity to educate on wls . If someone I think would benefit from what I did . I would discuss it. Telling everyone doesn't do what you said. Sent from my Vivo 5R using BariatricPal mobile app

Ironic. With the name under cover diet lol Sent from my Vivo 5R using BariatricPal mobile app

How about because everyone in my life isn't important to me ? Only one I care about their opinion is my mum. So I told her. But why tell people I couldn't give a sh* what they think about it ? Then when you tell them people complain they give their opinion.. I don't care for others opinion. I'm a private person about other aspects of health.i am not ashamed about the surgery. But I'm not the type to blab my mouth about what I'm dealing with. Some people are. No judgement either way but half the people your telling probably doesn't give a crap so I don't see the point.
