29 Years Old & Getting the Sleeve



Recommended Posts

Hello!

I am 29 and I'll be getting the surgery in February, a month after my 30th birthday. I have the same BMI as you and also decided not to tell anyone. It's actually my decision and people here so judgemental. People who know: partner, mum, hairdresser and you all. People who will know: my sister some day before surgery and my best friend (a male who doesn't gossip)

So don't worry, everyone does what she/he feels like. The result is the same: you'll lose your weight. And a smile to the people who will compliment you on your weight loss will be eloquent enough, no need to even say "thank you"!

I am 27 and getting sleeved early next year. I have told many, all my family knows and my hubbys family knows through my blog. Ive told my good friends at work, home and at Church. Im also going to start a video blog on Youtube documenting the journey. With everyone else, I figure if they ask after surgery I will tell them. Im so excited about the surgery I doubt I will be able to keep my mouth shut ;)

So now that I am sleeved I am telling. Still not saying anything at work but have or will tell all my friends and family. Now that surgery is done I really don't care who knows. Kinda crazy how that all works. Surgery went great and I am already down 17 lbs. In just 10 days. So I say judge that suckers:)

I post on Facebook and all my coworkers know and I have gotten a few cruddy remarks but I don't care . It is my choice to share I am not obligated to do so I choose to shout it to the world. You just have to do what makes you happy just as you chose to have surgery it is your choice who you want to share they news with. Best of lucky sleevers we are an elite group of women with a secrect skinny weapon

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
