Question of lower BMI patients
Hi I’m 9 months out and lost 65lbs not sure why it has slowed down but I realized I stopped cardio cause I had a flare up from RA but now I’m back with cardio and lost 5 lbs in a week .. always have your water at least 33-60! A day .. I just get a large smart water bottle fill it up twice a day and drink it all before I go to sleep even drink when you are driving .. I need to be down 12 lbs by March 23 when I see dr ... pray for me

how often did you feel buyers remorse having the surgery
My pain was gone after like day 3 I found it so hard to eat and drink so I lived off of sugar free jello .. ice chips,, broth from wonton soup .. I sometimes regret it because I’m a single parent and broke so It seems like fish and other expensive foods I can’t afford I couldn’t even buy my vitamins the first month..

To tell or not to tell
I started telling friends and family and then I realized the friends I told were a mistake because they will then tell everyone ... I felt some animosity from them making jokes and comments .. I also feel like my family sees it as I took the easy road .. so now I tell no one and I don’t post on social media

Any regrets
