@caitygotsleeved: To look back and see that I’m practically half the size I was blows me away. So many people say “weight loss surgery is the easy way out” when in reality it’s one of the bravest, hardest and most life changing choices someone overweight can do. You see all these incredible before and afters but not many see behind closed doors the trials you’re faced with. Can you imagine going from one day to eating whatever you like to only liquid for 2 weeks? When after 2 months of mushed food you can’t even stomach half a sushi roll, yet watch everyone around you eating what their heart desires? It’s not just a surgery it’s a COMPLETE rewiring of your brain. Nobody sees the dedication, determination and will power behind this journey. I don’t remember what chocolate or a cheeseburger tastes like, what I put in my mouth is what my body needs.So next time you hear someone’s having weight loss surgery instead of rolling your eyes, tell them how brave they are #fyp #gastricsleeve #wls #fypシ #bariatric #wlscommunity #vsg #wlsjourney #weightloss #6monthspostop #bariatricsurgery #proud #overweight #changeyourlife #bodypositivity
