Hello, had a feeling this would be spoken about on Tattle this morning
![Confused face :confused: 😕](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/joypixels/emoji-assets@5.0/png/64/1f615.png)
I am a newbie to slimming world, not the gram, I started the page after my attitude towards food/weight loss has been turned upside down since joining slimming world, and my journey is in memory of my mum as I only wish she had found something like this when she was alive. The ‘horror story’ that you call it is that my mum lost her life due to a gastric bypass that made her end up bed ridden, myself and my family watched her deteriorate over two years, fed through a tube into her bowels, so malnourished she couldn’t even take herself to the toilet, she lost herself and her normality months before she finally passed. I could go on, but anyone wanting a ‘horror story’ must be a bit tapped in the head?! Surely the horror is that she died at all leaving children and grandchildren behind at Its something I’ll talk more about in the future when I’m ready. I didn’t ask fooperholic to share my story, that was on her, and I massively appreciate it, I’ve had my account 2 days I’ve followed some bigger and some smaller SW accounts, I know very little about this woman, just grateful to her for sharing my story as obviously I’m all for anyone knowing the risks with weight loss surgery as I wouldn’t want another family to go through what we had to. Hope that clears a few things up! And YES I also use tattle but won’t be checking this thread again as I realise there will be opinions that will just hurt to be honest...

I am a newbie to slimming world, not the gram, that’s true! I started the page after my attitude towards food/weight loss has been turned upside down since joining slimming world, and my journey is in memory of my mum as I only wish she had found something like this when she was alive. The ‘horror story’ that you call it is that my mum lost her life due to a gastric bypass that made her end up bed ridden, myself and my family watched her deteriorate over two years, fed through a tube into her bowels, so malnourished she couldn’t even take herself to the toilet, she lost herself and her normality months before she finally passed. I could go on, but anyone wanting a ‘horror story’ must be a bit tapped in the head?! Surely the horror is that she died at all leaving children and grandchildren behind at only 49? Its something I’ll talk more about in the future when I’m ready. I didn’t ask fooperholic to share my story, that was on her, and I massively appreciate it, I’ve had my account 2 days I’ve followed some bigger and some smaller SW accounts, I know very little about this woman, just grateful to her for sharing my story as obviously I’m all for anyone knowing the risks with weight loss surgery as I wouldn’t want another family to go through what we had to. Hope that clears a few things up! And YES I also use tattle but won’t be on this thread again as I realise there will be opinions that will just hurt to be honest...sometimes it goes way too far and this is a prime example.
