The surgery is a tool, you better have the whole workshop in order - Read and search here on post op stuff -

Find fluffychic and read her posts - If you are not mentally strong read my long post on how i crashed post op.

Walk whenever you can, rest when your body tells you to, sip sip sip your Water and protien shakes. Stick to the plan and enjoy the new you !

Did you really lose 121 pounds in 7weeks? I started at 285 and thought I was good losing 40 pounds...feeling like a failure now ☹️

40lbs is excellent no reason to feel like a failure at all. The poster may have lost a lot of weight before surgery.

I am almost 7 weeks and have only lost 17 pounds since surgery. I don't think it's humanly possible to lose 121 pounds in 7 weeks!

Wait. Where does it say that I lost that much. Those may be stats from when I had my lap band years ago. I’ve since had it removed. I’ve lost 30.

Just looking at the stats on the side under yr profile, I had a bit of a shock and wasn’t sure how you did that 😂😂😂 I’m going corona-crazy! Sorry, I wasn’t trying to be a smartass, just wanted to know if it was real and if so how....

It’s okay! I can’t figure out how to take that off. Maybe you could help me!
