    Dizziness

    Although the culprit maybe low blood pressure (it is for me) don't forget to stay hydrated adequately as some common post surgical complications are usually dehydration related. Also hold on to something when you get up, don't fall! CONGRATS!!!!
  3. @sillykitty Yeah...my family hasn't had a say in my life decisions in decades... Sometimes i brief them sometimes i dont. But that may be individual, cultural and generational.

    Non Scale Victories

    Soon , promise 🙋🙋🙋🙋🙋🙋
  5. I suggest reading every food label. If you are not making it from scratch it will have unexpected macros. Those carbs/sugars can add up quickly and you want to know if they are naturally occurring, added, sugar alcohol, fiber or net count. Safe Journey
  6. For me, I've lived with the same set of issues for a while having children, I don't look bad but its not ideal. I was talking with my niece a few weeks ago, and we were comparing body stories (we are similar in age and now in body type and life experience) and she wants plastics too. We discussed breast lifts/augmentation, lipo of back/stomach, BBL, TT, arm lifts and thigh lifts. She was only concerned about the scaring on the arms. We both want only one surgery and decided to seriously start looking into it when we hit our lowest weights highest funds. I'm thinking Mexico. So I a lot of people are thinking about it (who have not even had WLS) and for us the deciding factor is how what we can safely get done for the best price in one surgery.

    Ordering bridesmaid dress?

    That's hard to predict can you have the store order/bring in a procession of sizes down in the same dress so that you can estimate? Bridesmaids dresses are not usually super custom so it shouldn't cost a fortune if requested ahead of time...

    4 Month Diet

    You can start by meticulously tracking your food/water intake (if not already) this will help you to: not gain any weight, maybe lose some weight and set you up for great habits after surgery! You're on your way!!!
  14. Well, do you *have* to tell them this time? You can be as selective as you want or as open as you like but you don't require anyone's consent Be fiercely protective of your right to peace, privacy and autonomy on journey.

    How do I know I’m full?

    If you don't have a signal (I never did until it was too late) try to never eat past the recommended amount for your stage example 1/8cup, 1/4cup, etc... Better safe than sorry Safe Journey

    Logging your daily intake of food and etc.?

    This is an interesting question! The only thing I can say is not all cals/macros are the same Fat is not just fat, carb is not just carb etc, different types of each of the macros will do different things in your body but that's getting too technical (someone correct me if I'm wrong) Also I know from watching food trends I lose more weight when I eat watermelon vs strawberries although I portion the same cal amounts...
