Hi Everyone,
I am interested in hearing from post-ops (6 mos or longer) about your experiences with very specific things, before and after surgery. I'm struggling with whether to have the surgery...or not. I am 5'4", 212lbs, pre-diabetic, with sleep apnea and if I could only have a little will power, I could probably lose weight. I am just not doing it. So surgery seems like an option, only...I'm not entirely sure I could comply with the diet. If I could, I wouldn't really be 211lbs, right?! So I'm looking for some hard data!
Can you please tell me about your experience as it relates to your own personal before/after:
How often did you eat these things before the surgery and how often (1-2x daily; 2x daily; 3+ daily or more; weekly; monthly; special occasions only; never; etc) and how often do you eat them post-surgery?
Pizza (Before and Now)
Soda (Before and Now)
Fast Food (Before and Now)
Spicy Food (Before and Now)
Ice Cream (Before and Now)
Cake / Candy / Sugary Stuff (Before and Now)
Salty Snacks (Before and Now)
Do you ever overeat post-surgery?
Do you exercise now and did you before?
Do you have cravings post-sugery and are you able to satisfy them?
What is the hardest part for you, post-surgery?
Do you have any advice for someone who just can't decide?
Thank you for your help!
