  1. It's like youve got it the wrong way round and saying it like "most " as if you even live in the UK to say how we interprete things. You always think your right. I'm in the UK and I'm sure you will tell me I'm wrong too lol you know more about Brits than a Brit . It's funny Sent from my Vivo 5R using BariatricPal mobile app
  2. I'm in the UK. And read 12 noon till 8 evening. So would everyone else I know here in the UK . Most Brits would read it as she said it .. Sent from my Vivo 5R using BariatricPal mobile app
  3. This is going to be controversial but I have to be honest. People get angry that people are not attracted to bigger people I'm not offended. I'm 180 and still considered fat and many people wouldn't look at me. It doesn't mean they don't respect bigger people but you can't help what you are attracted to. I've never been attracted to a 500lbs person. No judgement . I will always show everyone the same respect. But that isn't for me. Were as it is for others. Many things about me people do not feel is for them. And it's okay there is someone for everyone. But I don't judge those who are not into someone my size.

  4. You say that. But I have a disability and often use a wheelchair. Yet I still get so much attention when I go on a night out. People would be drawn to stay a way from a wheelchair user as clearly we don't look like we are capable of reproducing lol ( I have two kids ) but I'm confident and look pretty cute these days lol so always get people wanting to hang out or take me on a date when I'm out. So there are many exceptions to this rule. Sent from my Vivo 5R using BariatricPal mobile app
  5. And I agree it's a mix of things. I dress quite glamoursly now lol Sent from my Vivo 5R using BariatricPal mobile app
  6. I've noticed it to .when I go out I get so much attention from men and women. I've gone from 244 (heighest 250) to the 180s i didn't think it's that much of a difference. I expected to not get attention till alot lower weight it's so strange. People asking for my number. Checking me out even at the hospital someone who worked their asked me for my number lol it's strange. I don't know how skinny people stay grounded because the confidence boost is unreal.

  7. I only just realized . I quit soda post And haven't even thought of it Used to have a huge amount Sent from my Vivo 5R using BariatricPal mobile app
  8. Hello there. I tried eating the post op diet of 4 ounces of food only.. I failed miserably and thought if I can't do it now I can't do it after. I should not do it. I was very wrong. Because you need the brain to change sure. But the physical restriction is something I can't stimulate before. Now I have no issues eating even under 4 ounces. I did try to make changes before. And mostly stuck to my pre op diet. Because it was only short term so it wasn't so bad. Don't be discouraged.. I am a new person and only 4 months post. And I really am in an easy phase ... Weights pouring of and I don't feel on a diet. I feel like I'm living my life. Sent from my Vivo 5R using BariatricPal mobile app

  13. Can I see what your daily meal plan is to eat 8 times ? Very interesting. When I am in a stall I eat 6 times to get things moving . Works a treat. But generally I eat maybe twice a day in the evening. As my tummy hurts it I ear to early. Sent from my Vivo 5R using BariatricPal mobile app
  14. Hi . I'm 4 months post. Normal feeling. I almost backed out. So glad I didn't. Best decision I have made. Aslong as I follow the plan I'm no longer thinking about too far in the future. And the possibilitys it won't work. I'm responsible for myself today. And I will be tommorow . And take each day as it comes. Good luck Sent from my Vivo 5R using BariatricPal mobile app
  15. Wow already near goal. What's your height and goal weight ? Sent from my Vivo 5R using BariatricPal mobile app
  16. I have back pain anyway. And my surgeon said it will get worse after surgery. Less cushion as I lose weight will make it worse. Maybe you have a less cushion so it hurts and will adjust with time ? Sent from my Vivo 5R using BariatricPal mobile app

  21. Op - Try to not weigh till you go for your first check up you will be surprised. Just focus on doing what your doing and you will be fine. I would even hold off weighing for 2 weeks allow your body to settle down. Sent from my Vivo 5R using BariatricPal mobile app
