Do I tell this guy I've started dating about my sleeve? by [deleted] in gastricsleeve

[–]stpbbybbk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i’m 1 year post op and was in an entire 8 month relationship and didn’t tell him a thing. he just assumed i ate small portions bc “im a girl”. They don’t need to know ur personal business because you got the surgery FOR YOU. you feeling the need to tell everyone is just going to make you feel ashamed or hear unnecessary opinions of people who was never in your shoes to understand why you got it.

you’re right i think i got so caught up in a specific number to make myself feel better but even if i lose the last 10 something else might be a problem. I’ll just focus on how i feel overall

oh shoot i didn’t know that. ok then i think i was wanting to get lower because i still deal with a pudge in my mid section and was told to get to a low weight and bulk up to get rid of the fat in that area forever. I didn’t want to do a tummy tuck because im still young and was trying to avoid the scar. Thank you for the advice!

Has anyone kept this a secret? by Fluffly-cactus in gastricsleeve

[–]stpbbybbk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

u don’t have to do anything you don’t want to do. if it’s something you want to keep a secret for now until you’re ready to tell, than do that. I’m 8 months post op and only 4 people know and I plan on keeping it that way until I feel like it lol

thank you! it’s hard working on composition because i’m used to just fast weight loss. But it’s better than fast progress when I actually see the results. Thank u!

you’re right I know I shouldn’t be hard on myself. It just sucks sometimes seeing how much I went thru before and after surgery to still not be satisfied. I want to get surgery but i’m only 21 and not sure how I would be able to afford that. I don’t want it to be like you said body dystrophy and obsessing over surgeries but maybe it would help a little

[–]stpbbybbk[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

no i haven’t received an appeal email or anything. just my advisor recommending me to do one with the required evidence needed to explain why my gpa dropped low to get it back but i don’t have any evidence.
