One of many...medical professionals speak to me much more kindly and respectfully. Instead of dismissing everything with "You need to lose weight", they actually assess and evaluate my symptoms.

This one is kinda messed up and I have mixed feelings about it. Strangers treat you better. Isn't that sad? But it's true. Men hold the door, say hello, run over to help you do things

more energy and sorry if TMI, better intimate relations. it just feels different.
Hello friends!
I am about halfway through my weight management program and am looking forward to (fingers crossed!) being approved for RNY in late June.
My question for you all: I read these boards daily and I read a lot about the struggles and challenges after surgery (let’s say first six months) - I’m trying to keep a positive mindset about the first few months and was curious if you’d share besides weight loss what have the BEST side effects been for you? What can us newbies look forward to in those first six months outside of weight loss? I know a lot of this is going to be a mental process so appreciate you sharing! ❤️
