So today is day 11 post op for me and until lunch te things were going fine!

I get so nurvous about eating around people that don't know that I ate way too fast and ended up being sick. It was so painful and now my new stomach feels so sore.

Then I got to car park to find my head teacher had parked so close to me that I had to shimmy over from the passenger side and I pulled the incisions and now everytime I move they hurt like crazy! I'm sure the stupid head teacher does this on purpose as she is a tiny size uk 4 and looks down her nose at me all the time!!!!

Ahhhhhhh I hurt and I wanna cry!

Bad bad bad day !!!!

I would ding her car so badly with your door. . . what she is doing is totally wrong (so is dinging it, but revenge is sweet) First off she should park properly and not be a lane hog! Can't the campus police (if you have those) give her a ticket or something for that?

I'm sorry you're having such a rough day!! :angry: One thing that annoys me to NO END are inconsiderate people. I guess I just like to be treated the way I tread others. I take care not to park to close to others - etc.

You might want to just give your Dr. a call to see about your stitches coming out. It's probably not a big deal, but you never know!! More trouble is better to catch now rather than later.

I do hope your day gets better! If it makes you feel any better I also try to eat more normally in the company of others. I don't know why this is but it sure makes for misery later. It just makes it MORE apparent how different I am when I'm holding my belly looking miserable. LOL!!!

Lol! Thank you all soooooo much this forum really is like having a sleeve family where everyone knows just how I feel! 

Today I am feeling so much better I went home and slept for 3 hours!!! And then had some yummy home made chicken Soup ( always comforter )

I have an appointment with my surgeon on Friday so I will have him look at my poor incisions then.

I also spoke to the head teacher today and asked her to be more considerate with her parking ( she knows I had surgery just not what for) she still looked at me like I was a fat cow but did apologise! Skinny bitch!!!! Next time she'll get the key! Lol

I'm sticking with Soup again for a few days but that's cool as I like soup.

Thank you all again for being so lovely!

Hey Fairyfaye,

Your headteacher sounds like a right cow! That is just rude... take no notice of her and raise above it... she really isn't worth it. I work in a school, I am a teacher, and at lunch time if I am asked why I am eating soooo little, I just say that I am on a cal controlled diet. Last week I had a phase of greek youghurt for lunch, and a few comment 'is that all you are going to have?' ... I just said 'yep!' and sat there and enjoyed every mouthful! No one would have said that to a skinny person!!!

I am well impressed that you are back to work on day 11... I had my sleeve done in line with the 6 weeks hols. I don't think I could have returned to work in under 2 weeks, so well done! Remember, you'll have the last laugh! =]

Hey coops

Thank you so much for that I went back to work on day 5! My head really is such a cow I didnt want to miss too much time from school!

I have now told people I'm doing a liquid diet and that seems to have shut them up. I am very lucky to have some very good friends who I have told and after my distaster day yesterday they are acting like a protective blanket around me! They understand why I have chosen this option and are so supportive I am very luck to have them!

And yes I will have the last laugh! Lol

Hope you are well and keep enjoying that Greek yogurt!

<font color="#000080" size="4">It never ceases to amaze me how stupid and plain rude people are. They have no compassion or understanding for other folks who are trying to correct a health problem. I hope your incisions are OK, and for sure the last laugh will be on the ignorant ones who fail to think about another's well being.:D

      I am new here today... and only two weeks out from my sleeve surgery on the 23rd. I am amazed I have kept my calories down to 467 today so far... that leaves me almost 750 left for dinner and maybe a snack. This is going to be tough for two weeks... but I have to believe I can do it!

      Hey everyone. I'm new here so I thought I should introduce myself. I am 53y/o and am scheduled for Gastric Bypass on June 25th, 2025. I'm located in San Antonio, Texas. I will be having my surgery in Tiajuana Mexico. I've wanted this for years, but I always had insurance where bariatric procedures were excluded. Finally I am able to afford to pay out of pocket.  I can't wait to get started, and I hope I'm prepared for the initial period of "hell". I know what I have signed up for, but I'm sure the good to come will out way the temporary period of discomfort and feelings of regret. I'd love to find people to talk to who have been through the same procedure or experience before. So I look forward to meeting you all. Hope you have a great week!

        I'm so happy for you! You are about to change your life. I was so glad to get the sleeve done in Dec. I didn't have feelings of regret overall. And I'm down almost 60 lbs. I do feel a little sad at restaurants. I can barely eat half a kid's meal. I get adults meals often because kid ones don't have the same offerings at times. Then I feel obligated to eat on that until it's gone and that can be days. So the restaurant thing isn't great for me. All the rest is fine by me! I love feeling full with very little. I do wish I could drink when eating. And will sip at the end. Just a strong habit to stop. But I'm working on it! You will do fine! Just keep focused on your desire to be different. Not better or worse. But different. I am happy both ways but my low back doesn't like me that heavy. So I listened (also my feet!). LOL! Update us on your journey! I'm not far from you. I'm in Houston. Good luck and I hope it all goes smoothly! Would love to see pics of the town you go to for this. I've never been there. Neat you will be traveling for this! Enjoy the journey. Take it one day at a time. Sometimes a few hours at a time. Follow all recommendations as best you can. 💗

        Thank you so much for your well wishes. I am hoping that everything goes easy for me as well. We don't eat out much as it is, so it wont be too bad in that department. Thankfully. Also, I hear you regarding your back and feet!! I'd like to add knees to the list. Killing me as we speak! I'm only 5' so the weight has to go. Too short to carry all this weight. Menopause really did a doosey on me. (😶lol) My daughter also lives in Houston. with her Husband and my 5 grand-littles. I grew up in Beaumont, so I know Houston well, I will be sure to keep in touch and update you on my journey. I may need some advice in the future, or just motivation. Thank You so much for reaching out, I was hoping to connect with someone in the community. I really appreciate it. 💜

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        I hope your surgery on Wednesday goes well. You will be able to do all sorts of new things as you find your new normal after surgery. I don't know this from experience yet, but I am seeing a lot of positive things from people who have had it done. Best of luck!

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.
