    I lied

    I've done the same. With a straight face and erect posture. You can *lie* about it all you want to nosey people who just want an all access pass to your life. They don't get one and you don't have to give it. P R I V A C Y You deserve it. Protect it, hell even *lie* to maintain it if you *need* to about this in a world that no longer respects boundaries and will steal it at every turn. Medical information is after all inherently private unless it directly affects another persons health. Jealously does not qualify Congrats on your success πŸ’œ

    I'm not doing well

    Tell your doctor everything. Even try to make a list of symptoms if you can. Any updates?

    Coffee?

    This is tricky. I would say stick to the plan they came up with for you and/or question them thoroughly about it so yiu have a clear understanding why. You chose them and will be in partnership for a while. No one on here (despite best advice offered) will take your calls at 3am to tell you to go to the ER, request labs when you are just feeling off or test your acid levels in 3 yrs when GERD is suspected but its really just the fajitas... If they chose a year without caffeine, and you agreed to it, there must be a reason. Find out why directly from them. Good luck πŸ’œ

    Dating

    No doubt dating can tricky, tiring, nuanced and stressful sometimes. One of my favorite affirmations is to Learn to rest instead of quit especially when the road is long and arduous.

    So who is super defensive, private and protective of their post surgery persona lol ? βœ‹βœ‹βœ‹βœ‹βœ‹βœ‹βœ‹βœ‹βœ‹βœ‹βœ‹βœ‹βœ‹βœ‹βœ‹βœ‹ Wouldn't think so, huh but in person it has not been confirmed by me that i had surgery although some may suspect... So its not often i get to have open conversations about me. So quite a few people said i don't eat much and i totally was unwilling to acknowledge their observations because frankly they were generally negative. But having observations come from a objective party was... different. A few things it made me consider was: 1. I don't eat much food by quantity (although in my mind i eat A LOT) 2. Maybe the WLS community obsesses like no other over food 3. I hate negative people (to the point where i throw away the baby with the bathwater- no bueno) 4. I like numbered instead of lettered lists 5. My perception about myself maybe totally skewed but in a vacuum who can know Does anyone else: A. Have an objective support system? B. Think they eat too much although there is no evidence? C. Randomly switch from numbered to lettered lists ? D. Shut down information coming from negative sources? E. Sometimes capitalize the letter "I" sometimes not?
  22. Enjoy your WLS journey ... It may not be as perilous as you think. And enjoy life too πŸ’œ
