Do you know anyone who's had weight loss surgery?


Recommended Posts

One of my friends is getting a gastric bypass soon and is really unsure about what to expect. Has anyone else here had any kind of weight loss surgery/know anyone who has and is willing to share their experience?

Why your friend isn't making the thread herself?

Yes. They get fat again after a few years.

Oh gosh, I thought this was the case. She's putting so much stock by her future appearance, I'm worried if she doesn't see the results she's expecting she'll spiral :cries:

I know a few people who have had bariatric surgery and everyone agrees that it was one of the best decisions they ever made.

she will get skinnier but if she never changes her eating habits, she will just go back to the way she was before in a few years. I know 3 people that had the surgery done and all of them are back to being fat again, unfortunately.

Yes, my hairdresser had it and she looks completely unrecognizable, like a totally different person.

Gastric bypass and gastric sleeve are not the same procedure.

 

as someone who’s looked into these matters heavily - I’d opt for gastric sleeve myself (apparently it’s more expensive tho - for a reason; looks like it’s more sustained and fares much higher in middle-term comparison: https://www.medpagetoday.com/endocrinology/obesity/99373#:~:text=At 10 years after surgery,119 who underwent gastric bypass.

 

i’ve personally opted for Ozempic at last since I don’t want to be THAT skinny which is most of time what you get with these procedures. Feel free to hmu if you want to to follow up on any point in this post in private confidentially. Your bestie has got this! We deserve our justice in this hypocritical world where you get deprived of so much of you’re not slim or slender. Science and time is working for us! ♥️♥️🤌🏾

The scaremongering in here @ eating habits. It’s a same 50/50 story as with everything. Could be - need not be the case at all.

The fat-shaming jokes in this thread don’t surprise me— they just disappoint me.

Gay world is the absolute pits for this. Not like thee heteros have it much easier in this regard but it’s considerable. 
 

I’m genetically predisposed onto fat-carrying body mass as opposed to athelticness and muscle-prone.

 

combine that with Lithium and antidepressant I’m on.. I lost considerable weight twice last 10 years and always regained it. The latter time was because of heavy mental health harrowing issues. It seemed I cannot seem to win - like at all weight wise

 

Forever grateful to Kim K and Meghan Trainor out of many for leaping into Ozempic and Diabetes spectrum medical realm and figuring out Ozempic. I had a ‘trial month’ of Oz in March. I’d never thought I could experience feeling ‘normal’ people do while passing by food: no insatiable urge or craving to either eat that very thing, get something mine to eat or think about food at all post- sight : just chill vibes and ‘oh food? Cool. Bye’

 

science is beautiful, I cherish patenters of Oz every single day

But the "weight-loss" surgery is the bariatric one, right? They reduce the size of your stomach. So it doesn't matter if it's done in Mexico or in Turkey. The stomach will be reduced either way. I believe you're thinking about liposuction.

It has everything you need!

to have a gastric bypass you sure have to change your habits or treat yourself with that cause that makes you eat a lot. the majority of cases of obesity have psychological causes behind it.

 

my aunt has done it last year and she looks fine now. she's changed habits but she wasn't that fat, so the doctor advised her to eat a lot (then she gained around 40 pounds to do the surgery.  hope she keeps it up now she appears to be well.

My dad did it and it aged him 100 years. I think he looked better before. He's so skinny now looks ljust like his dad. My sister's husband did it and was skinny for a bit but he looks like a smaller version of his old self now. It's weird when you eat with them cause they only eat like 25 percent of their plates. They shoulda just exersized like me 😎

some latam doctors just do it for the money. there's no will to care or to help to develop a healthier society, so that's what happens.
