Won't Lose My Humility- Only My Weight.



Recommended Posts

Today is surgery day. We'll be leaving in 30 minutes. I'm hoping there are no complications and that I can lose this weight for good.

I won't ever forget how it is- the stigma associated with obesity, not to meantion the health issues and depression.

I vow not to ever lose the humility and empathy that being this big has helped create. It is one very endearing quality that we all have.

See ya on the other side.

Good luck! I have the same sentiments, I vow to always remember what it was like to be a larger person and suffer from that discrimination! Keep us posted on how it goes.

That is a great resolve. ( is that the right word?)

Some of my great friends have forgotten who they were and where they came from after they got thin.I found it really sad at first but now I just think it will come back to bite them on the behind,like things usually do.

Good luck with your surgery and keep us posted as to how you are doing.

I agree 100%. A friend of mine told me about a co worker that had wls and lost big time- she then started preaching to everyone that they just had to eat right and exercise...... um... excuse me?

      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! 😞
