  4. I told everyone right the start, screw it they don’t understand or if they pick on me or whatever, this is for me aNd it doesn’t matter what they think, my time and my journey, almost everyone had someone they knew who did it or had a story and most were either cool with it or interested themselves, share it, what harm is there?
  5. Chaffing, looks of disgust, feeling different, finding clothes that fit, not thinking I’m good enough, big men’s section

  20. I come right out and tell everyone I did it, other ppl judge no matter what, I couldn’t care less what they think, I did this for me, and I never regret or look back, hopefully I inspire, which I have had many ask questions
  21. I threw up about 2 months out, first time trying fish after the surgery, i felt way better after I did, it wasn’t hard at all and I didn’t have pain after. I knew it took me almost 9 months before I could burp properly though.

  25. Update, all is good, the skin definitely caught up (stretched) with it and no more pain??
  26. Didn’t know that ibuprofen was bad for me, thanks for the info
  27. It will pass, then when you eat it will only take a couple bites to feel full, you will soon realize the only thing that you will regret about this entire journey is that you didn’t do it sooner, good luck, hang in there
