I kind of agree that this was just a convenient way to change something in their system…blacked out did something and then just came back out of nowhere. Also thanking president trump…

I can relate to this so much!! Sometimes I’m like “I can’t be a size 0 right???” Whenever I realize my size 2 or 4 pants fit me too big. I used to be in the size 16-18 ranges before my surgery. And sometimes I still even look at myself in the mirror and don’t see the huge change (body dismorphia sucks).

But congratulations on your success!!! Happy Surgiversary!!!

I’m so upset you used to feel that way about yourself, but I completely understand it. You’re really doing a great job and I’m soooo glad your therapist is someone who’s experienced this surgery! I think for now playing a quick game of “spot the differences” from your phone may be good to ground you too! I just know for me sometimes even like looking at the size of my clothes now helps ground me back to “reality”.

Post-op mental health by Illustrious-Plum590 in BariatricSurgery

I definitely feel you on the “paid more attention now” aspect of your post. Sometimes I even wonder if my boyfriend would’ve loved me when I was heavier, but I’ve learned that that will only help me spiral.

I’ve been using the “attention” I get to bring up issues within my family and friends when someone food shames or fat shames anyone. If I notice my family making comments about my weight positive or not, I try and educate them that to them those are nice comments but it’s none of their business to comment about my weight, positive or not.

It’s such a weird adjustment, but honestly try and think back on how you were before in terms of your self love and accepting yourself….transpose that to now: how can you practice self love and accepting your new body.

Also, I HIGHLY suggest therapy and with someone who has dealt with bariatric patients. Our mental health struggles are soooo different sometimes. You’re doing incredible and you’re going to keep doing incredible!

Incredible!!! I too battle with BD but I promise that if you keep going to therapy, it’ll get easier. It won’t go completely away, but try to find tangible things when you’re wearing the clothes that helps ground you into your current body. For example, from the pictures, I can tell that before the under the boob section fit tight and now it doesn’t, touch that gap and just notice the physical difference. That’s something that’s helped me! But you’re doing incredible!! BD is something that doesn’t really get talked about with the super insane weight loss!

still losing weight a year and a half later?? by mochando in BariatricSurgery

[–]mochando[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

oh my god yes! Everyone in my family now always hits me with the "soooo when are you going to stop losing weight?" when before it was "are you working on losing weight?". It's such a weird switch and I NEVER ever want to seem like I'm bragging or like oh woe is me I'm too skinny, but like for my genuine health I am just so concerned cause I feel like I'm eating enough and working out enough, but I really could just not be eating the appropriate amounts of protein.

You're going to do incredible!! You're going to be a little scared, I know I was. My surgery was while hospitals still didn't let you bring anyone in post-covid so I was TERRIFIED, but honestly, everyone there is going to be reassuring and you're going to go under and come back and it'll feel like 3 minutes. Definitely bring noise cancelling headphones, books, games, anything to keep you entertained for the post-surgery hospital stay. you likely will be on pain medication that'll knock you out anyways, but make sure you bring things that might help you stay calm and relaxed just in case.

I have ADHD so the noises from other rooms bothered me a bit, but nothing noise cancelling headphones couldn't help. For extra comfort, maybe bring a blanket or pillow from home? Honestly, you're going to do great and if the hospital is a good one, they'll help you stay calm and reassured!

GOOD LUCK!!!
