I do truly believe that many people get the procedure due to wanting to get someone to notice or think that with this surgery their insecurities will be gone. Society has already made it a trend that smaller is best, instead of healthy is best. So that I believe is where people on here begin to obsess over the rate of weight loss even as little as 5-6 days out.
This surgery WILL NOT...I repeat WILL NOT fix mental health issues. And recognizing depression or other mental struggles early in the process, I believe in the end will enhance the weight loss long term. Stress and other mental factors can cause weight gain, ultimately leaving the sleeve ineffective.
I personally don’t think that all know they are suffering mentally until after the surgery. So a post op therapist should be something to consider.

You bettttttaaaa go head girl ❤️ lol looking fierce

Mine are not truly visible but itch sometimes lol I need to find something to use!

I got sleeved June 6th!! I’m feeling much better today!! Energy is slowly coming back!! I have to do 21 days of liquids. Can’t tolerate much but I stick to what is working.

As I read through these posts it has become pretty clear that obesity is truly a mental condition. I saw this process as a tool to better myself, but a lot of people think its a catch all. Some people miss food while some get depressed about not eating. I wonder if more psychological stipulations should be inacted before a proceedure?
Any Thoughts....?

I agree, I use it and it's great!

It’s the bomb!

Yayyy we are close dates. We can keep each other encouraged!

Agreed it’s good have support!!

Yayyy we are a day a part!! I’m excited
