Who will you tell (or not tell) about WLS?
Deedee12 replied to ChubRub's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I just used vacation time. I think I took a Friday (surgery day) and 1 week off for a total of 9 days and I was fine going back to work. I didn't miss a beat so no one was the wiser. I'd already mentioned to colleagues at work that I was going through a radical change in my diet and exercise regimen so they were mentally prepared for the change. As I lose weight they have been complimentary. Sent from my SM-N960U using BariatricPal mobile app -

Day 14 Skipped yesterday but completed Abs anywhere on Saturday and just completed for today after spin class with the most awesome and inspiring instructor!! It was amazing so come home with energy to complete my ABs exercise without stopping!!!!! Further confirmation of head space work [emoji57] Went to a wonderful work charity gala over the weekend so pampered myself before getting dressed. I wore an outfit that a year ago will be the furthest thing from reality!! It felt amazing and I couldn't but thank God for the gift of this tool!! My email is truly always organized because I have a touch of OCD[emoji38]. I'm the person that has no unread message alerts of any type in my email [emoji19] I'll work on the grooming thing later on today. Daughters and I are having a very lazy fall break day!! Switched my gym tshirt after workout and went about the day till covered in my sweat[emoji6][emoji4]

Hey there[emoji112][emoji112] Congratulations on your upcoming surgery!! I had the sleeve August 16th and ONLY my husband knows till date! You are right, I didn't want to deal with anyone's feelings about it be it be positive or negative. I only wanted to deal with myself. My husband is also supportive and good at respecting my need for privacy! I have no regrets about both my decisions! Good luck 🧡🧡 Sent from my SM-N960U using BariatricPal mobile app -

Day 10: skipped abs exercise. Was my daughter's 9th birthday so we went out after school for froyo and I got myself lowfat one..it felt like pampering [emoji2] Day 11: abs done! I'm in a stall now so bummed a bit so read out Baristatic inspiration quotes several times and felt better. Totally encouraged by @Sheribears great new too! I love a lot of things about myself but won't say it out loud 🤣🤣 What would I do with extra $1K? Add it to my travel funds and add extra spa sessions to whatever I had going. Without sounding completely self absorbed, I'll also most likely give some to anyone that needs it more than I! Sent from my SM-N960U using BariatricPal mobile app

Day 7: Skipped exercise yesterday but completed multiple acts of random kindness. Gave my seat on the plane to a family that wanted to sit together. Abs anywhere done plus cycle class!! Skipping yesterday made today's ab exercise a lot more fruitful. I didn't try a new exercise but I consider these ABs exercise new. I'll go for a walk after work today. Ready for the week!!

Well said Krimsonbutterflies!!! Sometimes our mind makes us feel so alone and hopeless but you just have to rise above it. I've found that this journey is more than a weight loss journey, it's a journey of self discovery and finding out how much and how far our minds and body can go or do. You will start to inspire and motivate yourself to do things or feel things you never thought you were capable of doing or feeling. Journey of a million miles starts with a step. Start one thing without expectations of perfection and keep picking yourself up time and time again and before you know it, you have gone further than you thought you could. You do have a lot of anonymous support here cheering you on as your journey is our journey!!
