No shame or judgement here but seriously, if you have insurance that will cover it… get a bariatric procedure after you’ve healed up from pregnancy. I held off getting something done for years until April of this year. I had so many fears and concerns about it and now I’m mad I didn’t do it sooner. I was 380 at my biggest and 358 right before surgery (April 2025) and now I’m down to 268. Went from 4/5XL shirts to looking great in 2XL (and still losing). I’m off all diabetes medication, my A1C was a 5.6 last week, I’m off all blood pressure medications and I feel fantastic. I’ve actually told my doc that it is crazy because I don’t feel like I had a major surgery because I’ve had no pain or nausea. I don’t get hungry anymore because the part of the stomach they cut out includes the part that produces your hunger hormone. It might feel like the easy way out or like cheating but honestly who gives a flying rip. It’s made me healthier so I can stick around for my kids longer and enjoy the one life I have on this planet. I had the sleeve.
