    Surgery didn’t work?

    This post has been wild! I hope no one takes to heart what people say via the internet.

    I get it, and I already apologized. What more do you want? You can ask for an apology from every single person that has ever said something rude on here. And stop acting like you’ve never been rude in your life. I understand everyone on here is struggling with their weight, I hope they all reach their goals and live happy, healthy lives.

    If someone is going to be rude to me, I can be just as cruel back. Never have I said or done things like this before. You can go look at my other posts, and what I post on others questions, I provide help, and support. People here are rude. People advised me not to join websites like these because of everyone hiding behind a computer screen. I’m on Instagram and NEVER ONCE have I gotten a comment like the ones I did here tonight. I asked for it to stop, people didn’t want to stop and continued with all the rude comments. Honestly I want everyone on here to reach their goals and get the support they need. But after today I see there’s more of the opposite. I’m pretty new on here, I’ve only made a few posts and to see this side of bariatricpal is so disgusting and disappointing. I understand I was in the wrong too, and I apologize to those who I was rude to. But I’m going to say something especially when someone is being THAT RUDE.

    I’m honestly not upset. I could care less about what you think or say. You aren’t far out from your surgery, you could regain too. So 🤷🏻‍♀️. Lol and just so you know, I checked out your profile, looks like you had a meltdown at 6 weeks post op because losing a pound was “bad” in your book. I’m not “crying uncontrollably” heres your post post if You forgot “ I am sobbing uncontrollably right now and really need to hear from others who have had the band to RNY (or sleeve) revision, please. I am six days post op from band to RNY and I have lost ONE POUND. I am so upset. My biggest fear going into this was failing again just like I failed with the band. And, to me, a one pound loss is 100% failing. I'm in absolute hysterics right now crying. Why did I do this? So much money, so much time from work, so much pain... to lose a pound in a week? I could've lost far more than this with some simple Slim Fast diet or something. I can't do this. I cannot do this. I can't. What kind of fat, disgusting, out of control pig am I that even two WLS's aren't helping me lose weight?? I know my hormones are raging after surgery. I know I am behaving like an emotional basket case. I know this. But in this moment, this is so real. I am so upset... so ashamed of myself. If anyone reads this, would you mind telling me if you felt this way? Would you mind sharing your weight loss progress? How slow or fast it was? I know we are all different, but I would just like to see examples. And, most of all, would you mind sharing how you dealt with the incredibly slow loss? I am not a patient person. Not even close. I know myself. I will become discouraged and give up. I need help here. I do have an upcoming appointment with a therapist who I hope can help. But in this moment, I really, really just need to hear from those who have been here. “ thought u were the WISE dr. Seems like u might need to work on yourself

    I wouldn’t come to you EVEN IF I NEEDED help. You seem like a horrible person. Besides that I already had my psych evaluation and was cleared for surgery. If you had any sense you’d know that after a major surgery it’s okay to be fearful of if I’m doing the right thing or not. So why don’t you bounce off my post and worry about fixing yourself. Obviously as a doctor that didn’t prevent you from tipping the scale at 400 pounds. So why should I listen to anything you have to say, you couldn’t even listen to yourself.

    I’ve basically stalled throughout this entire journey so far. I already went two weeks in September not losing a single pound. Then I upped my cardio for an hour and I had to work my butt off to lose 2 pounds a week. I see others doing absolutely nothing but they’re losing 3/4 pounds a week. Even my nutritionist said I was probably stalling at the time I lost weight on my own. Me working out was probably why I was still losing. I don’t think I’m sabotaging myself by having 4 chips in 2 months. I never said I was eating them everyday. I know I probably shouldn’t have. But it’s not the end of the world. And yes I did do my research, and yes I spoke to my doctors and my weightloss team. They told me I shouldn’t have to feel as if I always have to work out to lose weight. I know my expectations, I already reached my 3 month goal before my 2nd. I wrote this post while frustrated with the process of a stall. But I’m going to do everything I can to speed up my stall and keep things going. I don’t want a 2 month stall. And there are people on here that will tell you how they helped overcome their stall ie by increasing calorie, or exercise or increasing their protein. It doesn’t hurt to try new things in order to see what works, thats what I’m doing.

    I’m doing what my doctor and my nutritionist want me to do. They said cardio, so I do cardio and I burn 800 calories doing so. Because I HATE exercise, to me it is slaving away. But exercise is part of being healthy. A calorie deficit = weight loss.

    You know if you’re just going to complain about women I don’t think ANYONE wants to hear it. Also statistically the majority of people who get bariatric surgery are WOMEN. Wanting to lose more weight doesn’t make you greedy by the way. People just want to know if they’re doing something wrong or can improve their results by doing something similar to what someone who is losing more is doing. Quit hating. No one needs that. If you’re going to just be rude to the people here that are offering their help and me then GET OFF MY POST.

    First of all don’t be rude. You can the exact same thing while being nice. I’m not comparing myself to 300 pound men or women! I’m comparing myself to people who are at around the same weight as me. Also did you not read my post? I’m saying I’m slaving away to lose those 30 pounds. I actually work out. When I know plenty of people that don’t even step foot in a gym that are losing 5 pounds a week.
  12. Hey guys! So I had gastric bypass on Aug. 14.2017. I was 249 starting, on surgery date I was 239 and today I am 208.8lbs. I see everyone in here who’s weight is literally falling off! They do nothing and the weight still comes off. While all the weight I’ve lost so far, I put work in! I go to the gym everyday and do cardio for an hour! And I still don’t lose as much as other people. And now, my weight hasn’t changed since last week, school and depression got in the way and I didn’t work out for 5 days. But I can’t even say I lost a pound despite how little I eat. So this is what I ate yesterday: breakfast was a premier protein, dinner was 44g of an avocado and 1 large egg. Then I had a snack of cashews which was portioned out to approx. 15g. Here comes the bad part, I ate a Pringle and I ate 3/4 potato chips from Trader Joe’s, so they probably aren’t as bad as lays. But it’s still bad I know. That was the first time I’ve had a snack of chips, today I’m throwing them all, no temptations. I don’t think it was horrible though, probably 5 chips in total . Even if I do a liquid diet, I still lose nothing. I’ll do one this week and let you guys know. So disappointed and unmotivated! I paid so much for this surgery because my insurance wouldn’t cover it. And here I am, with the world’s shittest results. Also note that I feel like I’ve been on a stall 99.9% of the time! Two weekends ago was the first time that the weight fell off and I lost 4 lbs by two days. But that’s the only time that has happened. EVER.
  13. Hey guys I've been on the preop diet since last Monday. The first few days went by great. Then I started cheating a tiny bit like having a string cheese. My nutritionist said I could have cheese but didn't specify what kind so I just had cheese heads. I also caved in by chewing a gummy and spitting it out. I'm starting to feel awful. I feel like I'm cheating. I lost 6pounds last week and now I'm at a stall, I haven't changed in 3 days... I'm upset, the scale isn't moving and I'm getting hungrier.. I don't know if I can make it till next Monday this whole process is making me want to cry and give up. I'm feeling guilty because I have to pay out of pocket.. and I know that this surgery doesn't do anything besides restrict portion sizes. Should I just drop the whole surgery. I'm young, I'm 19, been fat my whole life.. everything is a mess and I'm stressed.

    You could do a tiny bit to get your sugars up. I would consult your doctor as sugar sometimes makes people dump. Also you could ask about glucose tablets or the glucose gel which goes on your gums
