How did u loose so fast 100#'s

Sent from my SM-J700T using BariatricPal mobile app




I have followed my surgeons instructions to the letter and also work out 6 days a week at the gym. I do cardio and weight lifting. Weight lifting has been a huge help with loose skin and has really changed my body shape a lot.


As of October 12, 2017, I am 4 months post op and have lost 100 pounds. I have reached my goal weight and could not be more ecstatic!

He left the house?? It is starting to sound like not just hormones but him being unsupportive uncaring jerk, to excuse my frankness. First nail is not coming to hospital, then walking out when trying to give your struggles, right after you have major surgery?? Most people don't understand how major it is but that is supposed to be your partner and pillar of support regardless if he agreed with the decision or not. [emoji36][emoji35]

Yeah tell me about it. Thanks so much to everyone for letting me vent...

I'm so fortunate that my husband has been so supportive. He totally babies me. However, as much as I love him, if he had acted like your man, I would have kicked him to the curb. Better no man than a man who can't be there for you. BT/DT.

That’s how I lost 230 pounds lol, got rid of my man. 21 years of abuse was enough. I’ve been a single parent for 4 years. I’d rather be single then have a man that doesn’t support me.

AMEN! I think every woman is a member of the #METOO movement. I'm so sorry you went through 21 years of abuse! I spent 4 years in my abusive relationship and even almost married him. I finally saw the light and got out after he nearly choked me to death. Hugs for you! Stay strong! You're a brave woman!

Yes, it’s a shame how some men think. He’s been a little better now, but when I really needed him he wasn’t there for me and I will always remember that.

Yes you will. This guy is not for you. That’s hard to hear but when you’re back on your feet you need to be packing those bags Missytee. Someone who treats you like this at that stage in your life is abusive. You’re worth so much more. Much love x

This is my third day post op and I’m so depressed. My boyfriend is here walking around like I don’t exist. I’m crying from physical and mental pain. You would think after seeing me lying here he would ask how I’m doing or if I need anything. Not him..I just don’t know what to do at this point....just needed to vent since he’s not talking to me..


Don’t worry about him . Because once you start losing weight and getting fine. He’s going to be all In your face. Begging you to talk to him.

That's some ****. Have a conversation with him. Has he always been this detached?

I'm so sorry. Men act very strange when they don't know how to handle their emotions. Talk to him and ask him if he's ok. Then tell him how you feel without fussing at him. Tell him what you need. Ask him if he can give you what you need. He may have an issue with hospitals. Some people just cannot handle going to the hospital. Some people don't do well when loved ones are ill. But if you plan on having babies with this man one day he will have to get it together. Be sure not to
Make assumptions and give him a chance to open up to you. Sometimes we have to handle our men with white gloves. Now if he doesn't see anything wrong with his behavior you need to get rid of him.


Best wishes!

My husband didn’t stay for the surgery and he wasn’t there when I woke up. His step mother was there’s then later my mom came after I had told him not to tell anyone. He told them and they showed up. I was so mad . Then He wasn’t even there to take me home he sent his step mother to pick me up.

I'm so sorry to hear you are down. I'm depressed as well but for no apparent reason. Relationships are difficult but remember your inner strength. Take one day at a time and know you are taking charge of your life now. This is temporary and you have people here who will support you. You can do this, I believe in you!

I too am extremely depressed. I have nothing but feelings of anger and hatred. I don’t want to be around anyone. I feel like I hate my wife. I am tired and mentally exhausted. Wish I could pick up a drink or a drug but I know that isn’t the answer.

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that out thanks!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
