gastric sleeve

Um no

If u feel like you are close to someone of course you can share its really up to you I would hope that you would feel ok with your sisters to tell some people the person above is obviously not a very nice person but it's really up to you and how you feel around your house

Congratulations on the new you.

As far as telling people, I would be really careful. There is nothing wrong with gastric sleeve , but weight issues are one of those things that girls at TCU can be really snotty about. It really is between you and your doctor.

I do know several girls got lap bands a few years ago, but I think they all got them taken out.

Good luck

So I had a similar story. I had the sleeve three weeks after my 18th birthday. I was 232 pounds. No I'm 160 and feel great. I was about six months post op when I went though rush, so I had already lost a lot of weight. Because I came from out of state, nobody knew me in high school, and it wasn't even an issue. The only thing that was hard, was that I couldn't drink for a long time and my friends were drinking. Now I'm two and a half year s post op and doing great. I honestly don't think about it much. I would wait on telling people. You want people to judge you for your other positive qualities.

This is the same troll who has posted about anxiety disorderes, snoring, everyone here having learning disabilities...what a creepy person. We should not encourage this by giving kind responses. You responses do show way more about the high quality of people here versus the sick mind of a troll though.

OBTW - THANK YOU TO WHOEVER POSTED THIS IN THE FIRST PLACE, AND TO THOSE WHO ANSWERED IN GENUINELY. THANK YOU FOR POINTING OUT THAT EVERYBODY HAS A PLACE IN OUR UNIVERSITY, AND THAT IT ISN'T JUST FOR ONE TYPE OF PERSON.

This seems like a personal issue. Good for you for making a positive change but let people get to know you. Your past size isn't the most important part of who you are. Once you have developed strong friendships if you want to share this then go ahead but let people just get to know you first.

Hey! First off, congrats on your weight loss - that’s huge, and going into a rush feeling good about yourself is the best feeling. I had gastric sleeve surgery a few years back, so trust me, I know what it’s like to wonder if you should share your story or just keep it to yourself.

You don’t owe anyone the details of your medical history. I kept quiet about mine at first too. Later, after I got to know people and made some real friends, it just came up naturally. The people who mattered reacted with nothing but support and a little curiosity - never any judgment.

Just focus on having fun and enjoying how far you’ve come. And if you ever need advice or want to check in about your progress, staying in touch with the best bariatric surgeon makes a real difference. You’ve got this.

u don't owe it to tell anyone that u don't want to tell. there are sorority girls who lost weight to c0ke addiction or p3pt1d3s and tell everyone that it was pilates. if u decide to tell everyone, while it may be good to be brave and honest, others will immediately see it as a way to hold power over u while having their own secrets.
