    Had my sleeve 2 years ago, got reflux so had it converted to bypass last summer. Highest weight was 267, stayed pretty steady at 143-147 for the past year, I'm 5ft 8. Gone from size 2XL to Small, and my feet went from size 11 to 9!

    I started running, which has been a huge help with maintenance. I love Spartan style races, they are so much fun!

    Edited pictures because I'm still in the closet and paranoid!! I haven't posted pictures here before, fingers crossed nobody I know sees them!20180117_133926.jpg.2f0e2d4e265b121421bcf9c35925b090.jpg 20180117_134403.thumb.jpg.05b74163d059db2671ee42a94c96952e.jpg

    I wouldn’t joke around about OCD or bulimia. Not to be a buzz kill...but that’s really insensitive.

    Maybe instead of playing a joke on your family that’s fueled by resentment, you could reach out to them and get encouragement and support as they are “ultra fit.”

    Hello! I had my surgery 9/1 and had horrible, horrible gas pain for about 6 days after. It was suggested to me to take some milk of magnesia, but I ended up not having to because I eventually had a BM.

    After that first week after surgery, I felt much better!

    Hello wonderful people of the interwebs!
    I'm currently looking for a buddy who may be able to provide some support, and vice versa. I love communicating with someone who is genuine, honest, blunt, and maybe funny. I've been having some emotional issues while going through the first few weeks since my surgery on September 18th. I am on depression and anxiety meds at the moment and I have been having a hard time with doing liquids the first few weeks, and haven't been on my depression or anxiety meds until I see my PCP on October 5th. I was an emotional eater for a good portion of my life, so being on liquids and liquids only for the last few weeks has been very, very hard... But, it will be worth it. So, I just need to chat... Hopefully someone on here may want to know me! Thank you for reading. You're beautiful.

    Hello! I had my surgery 9/1, am 26 years old and diagnosed with Major Depressive Disorder. It’s definitely been a tough few weeks, but I’m very open to speaking with you anytime!
