It’s the Rule!

Did you ever stop to think about all the rules and restrictions we face every day of our lives? We set rules at home, at work, in the car and even when we eat—well at least we try to set rules when we eat, but for many of us we didn’t and we got fat and can’t seem to lose the weight and keep it off! Your answer is Weight Loss Surgery.

Most of the rules are written and obvious! Those are easy rules. The difficult rules are those we use to stifle our creativity and also remain fat and unhealthy. We pretend that we can’t do things we actually can do. Like lose the weight once we want to do it bad enough. There are many reasons why we should have WLS, and just as many excuses for why we can’t or won’t. Who can help you? There are all kinds of us who will support you and cheer you on as you head towards your life changing journey. What strengths can you apply? Make a new rule with yourself that you won’t let the “I can’t’s” stand in the way of your dreams. For the FIRST time in a long time, put YOURSELF FIRST. This has to be all about you and NO one else. You can do this and you will be successful.

I have a favorite doctor and I feel he is the best there is out there. Many of the people will tell you that they feel that way about their doctors too. Start asking us all kinds of questions. Check things out before you make the choice of who you are going to have do your WLS. Be safe and ask all kind a questions about the hospital—NEVER a clinic. Where you do your recovery after WLS? This is about your health and the quality of your life for the rest of your life. I had a sleeve 3 ½ years ago and lost 105 pounds and have kept the weight off. I want you to be safe, healthy, and happy and successful. NEVER give up on your dreams.

Hugs,

Never a clinic? We have surgery centers here in the US people go to all the time. From what I read they sometimes do the sleeve outpatient...

So true!!! They do the surgery in an outpatient facility...and send you home that day.

Hi,

I know they do and for me and I can only speak for myself this is not something I would do. I am older than you, and for me I wanted to make sure that I was going to receive after care from the doctors who did my surgery, which I did. They were amazing.

Everyone has their standards of care and I knew what I wanted. I do want people to know that NOT all clinic are created equal. Check out infection rates, doctors and make your choice after you have educated yourself.There are some excellent doctors out there and I just want you to find the one that is best for you.

I can only speak about what I did and not what others are doing. It is a pretty serious surgery and the local hospital where I live keeps them for 2 days after there surgery. It is NOT a day surgery for this hospital and then they send you home on the 3rd day.

I wish all of you great success in your weight loss journey!

Hugs,

Suzanne
