gastric sleeve

by: new me

I had gastric sleeve in early June. I've already lost a bunch of weight. I'm really excited about rush and I have my clothes ready. I don't plan to talk about it during rush. But once i get into a sorority, should I tell my sisters?

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

No I'm nice I just can see girls spreading that around. But go for it. But yeah I'm sure based off of two words I said you can tell if I'm nice or not! Dumb ass

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

Thank you for telling this girl the truth. Size 0 is common at TCU. This campus has been voted one of the top 10 most "attract people" by News Week. The standards are high and there is body shaming if people are honest. Just show off your new figure and keep your private business private. I'm not trying to be mean. Im actually trying to help you. Good luck and welcome.

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.

So you think a person talking about anxiety disorders, snoring, learning disabilities and medical issues is "creepy?" Might I suggest that you are the creepy one.

Just because someone has a learning difference, doesn't mean they have to spend their life in the shadows of the world. I'm glad we have people willing to address the special needs that various groups might have.

I promise you I am not a troll. I'm just a girl wondering something. I don't know why you got so upset by my question. Thankfully, other people on here weren't as reactive as you.

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.

I really agree with the person above. Just let people see who you are inside, and find the best fit. Welcome.
