How are you emotionally from day to day I have bad anxiety and did find it was worse after surgery and still is quite bad but it’s different for everyone I was a wreck ahahha

I’m asking if you do because I found I didn’t have much emotional support well I did but no from someone who experienced it

AWSOME! I find it normal now but be careful because you will be able to eat and all of a sudden you will be full so just take your time and when I say full I mean you may throw it up that’s why I say be careful hahaha I somtimes eat to fast and find the hard way you will struggle at first with fluids etc but you will find your way as you heal because of the eating plan and stuff I eat normal foods and some things like rice bread Pasta I can’t eat doesn’t agree with me and some Spicey things and I get acid reflux bad ! I didn’t have any pain only straight after surgery but wasn’t bad at all and had my drip taken out the second day just make sure you walk even if you don’t think you can you need to so you can relive the gas because you will find you might have sore shoulders etc only advice I’d say about the hospital keep the door closed because they are loud lol and I had only the curtain closed and the would swoosh in every hour even at night LOL BTW do you have Instagram?

I’m around 5 months post op I think and I still throw up mainly if I accidentally eat to fast or to much

Hi Morgan my surgeon was doctor Jaber was in Wollongong private how about you:)?

It’s up to you I did and do it still almost everyday because I’m weird [emoji23]

Didn’t blend anything tbh people who do that mustn’t worry about it how it’s going to taste [emoji27]

This is my first time on this site, and I love the amount of information you guys share. Last night I had my consultation visit with my doctor and was not sure if I would qualify for surgery. After getting weighed and I saw my BMI, he said I qualify!
I, too, have a 3 month process before surgery. I will need to see a nutritionist 3 times, have an endoscopy done (I have a history of ulcers), and a psych evaluation. Also, I am required to exercise at the gym a minimum of 3 times a week for 12 weeks
My question is: Is this standard? Going to the gym and having a psych evaluation?
Thank you!

My surgeon suggests a realistic goal meaning once you start getting close to that take a long look at your self in the mirror while naked of course and decide wether you think maybe i could lose more or maybe I shouldn’t and try maintain where I’m at and start toning my loose skin etc

I lost 33 pounds before surgery in a very small amount of time

Day 2 for me I love my coffee can’t live without that!!!

Just take small sips throughout the day you can only try do your best don’t stress about it

I get a sore forearm when I start getting full from some foods lol weird

Your sleeve does stretch over time

When you fit into a size 14 high waisted skinny jeans

You only feel that way for a short time because you can't have what you want it will be okay and you will appreciate it soon once you see your results you will be happy you did it I regretted it to

Well done on the surgery everyone regrets it I think because it's a life change but I wouldn't change it now I'm a bit over 2 months out and really happy I did it

I was the same but I switched it to a gummie Vitamin and had no nausea from it

I did for a week after op and was heaps emotional I'm bow almost 2 months out and starting to get emotional and stuff again so annoying mail when I'm at work Or out

Hi all,
This is PURE curiosity, I can't even handle anything but Water so I won't be adding any solids I am just curious.
Did you eat solids earlier than recommended? I've noticed heaps of Surgeons say different things for example mine is 2 weeks Optifast pre-op, then post-op is 2 weeks clear liquid, 2 weeks puree, 4 weeks soft foods then you can slowly introduce solid foods.
I am curious if anyone actually ate earlier than they were told to by the surgeon? I am way way way to scared of stomach leak to even risk it, plus still in the nausea stage.
I'm just very curious [emoji4]

Walking an hour everyday 4km and the gym every second day
