And you know what... YOU'RE WRONG! I DID wake up skinny. I don't know what you're talking about. Pshh.
You're totally right though I think I just started really feeling normal in the last 2ish months.
I would also like to add that those of us without major complications need to be thankful as HELL. The first month sucks, but you're alive. I know I struggled and I posted about it. I felt weak quite often , would fall asleep while driving, I've struggled with dehydration, my meds and vits would make me gag, I had a major issue with sleep, my emotions went psychotic, a month and a half in I hit a major depression that I'm finally coming out of, etc. etc. etc. On top of that, I wasn't sure if my "plan" was too advanced and if I was eating things too soon so I had no idea what to eat, when to eat it and who to listen to. It was all very crazy. Oh yeah, and my recovery in the hospital was the devil! Oh... and I felt like the ultimate slow loser because I would hit "stalls" every few ******g days. Anyway, despite that, no REAL complications. All of us who just have the BUMPS in the road, and to the new people, there will be a TON of bumps, we need to just be happy that we are experiencing THESE bumps instead of the bumps that we'd be experiencing from prolonged obesity.
I was just grateful to have the surgery - so many people have barriers to even getting it. I'm not going to cry because I had it and now I don't like it.

It was pretty easy for me to actually get it too... besides following all the damn requirements. But after spending 400 years in school you get used to taking classes, chasing your tail, getting sent to different offices, retaking classes, meeting new requirements and all that **** so it was whatever. I was still thinking "Damn, it's FREE!?" Well, almost much free anyway.
And shut up. You look good and after you have all that damn plastic surgery... DAMN! You think we're fighting over you now?? You just wait!
