Clothing
Ugh, I wish Facebook didn't know I've lost weight, need new clothes, and love that I can wear all these cute styles now. Everytime I look at Facebook there's all these click her now to buy this cute dress, adorable top, hot swimsuit. The prices are more affordable than what I used to have to pay and fitting into these smaller sizes is enticing as well, but I'm holding out as I know it won't be long before they're too big too. Lord give me the strength to not click here! [emoji120] Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using BariatricPal mobile app

Let's talk about body dysmorphia
I'm very similar to you as well, heaviest weight 362, 5'10". I knew I was big but after seeing myself in my daughter's wedding photos, I was like Whoa, I didn't realize I looked like that! I'm down 66lbs since February and very pleased so far. Congrats on being so close to 100#. When was your surgery and did you get the sleeve? Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using BariatricPal mobile app

Happy to report I broke out of the 300's today. Down 66 lbs, sleeved 2/28. You know you just can't go around telling anyone that without judgement or uncomfortable looks. I'm so happy just had to share! Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using BariatricPal mobile app

Taking advantage of the first year
To me it means take advantage of no food cravings and not being hungry. Don't "try" things that are not good for you. Take this time to change your relationship with food. Learn about logging food, weighing and measuring. Find healthy snacks that you like. But I'm only 8 weeks out. Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using BariatricPal mobile app

Outpatient sleeve
Had mine outpatient. I was released within 3 hours of surgery. I was perfectly fine and happy to be home sleeping in my own bed the rest of the day, minus the hourly walks I got up for. Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using BariatricPal mobile app

What, you had NO surgery complications?
No complications here either. Sleeved February 28, 2019. I had day surgery was released within 2 hours of surgery, walked a lot right after. Had no nausea, took minimum pain meds for a few days. I've had no stalls yet. Lost 11 lbs first week and 2 to 5 lbs every week since. Down 63 lbs since the two week pre-op diet. I follow my plan, log my food, take my Vitamins, weigh and measure my food, weigh myself only once a week, drink Water only, get my Protein in most days. One thing I don't do on plan is hit my calorie goal of 600-800 calories, I find that difficult at this point as I can't eat much and don't snack because I'm never hungry. I think I had a great surgeon and support staff. I couldn't be happier with my results. Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using BariatricPal mobile app

Vision adjustment after weight loss goal
Yes, I used to always stretch out my tops in the tummy and arm area before putting them on. Sometimes I still catch myself doing it even though my shirts are all plenty roomy now. I bought a size smaller t-shirt the other day and really strechef it out because I was afraid it was going to be too tight, it didn't need stretched at all, I could've even went down 2 sizes.

Teriffying experience blockage of food
Not according to my surgeons plan, I was on soft protiens including fish on week 3. No puree stage ever. No problems. Every Dr is different Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using BariatricPal mobile app

February 2019 weight loss buds
Had a great 6 week post op Dr. & Dietician visit today. I can move on to the next food stage early. I was told that I needed to up my calories to 600 - 800. I think that'll be hard, but I'll try. Crazy to feel like that for me!! I'm down 57 lbs, very excited about that!! So thankful that I am able to take this journey!! Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using BariatricPal mobile app
