Alot of girls look back at photos especially when they start getting older and wish they were only that "fat" again. Good luck big T. I know people who have had the gastric done. No alcohol, no sugar, esp the sugary dunkin drinks, no pasta, you have to keep track of what you eat, etc...it's alot of work. Like alot. You still get cravings and what not. Out of the 4 people I know 1 of them gained it back. It works but again not without tons of effort. Like others have said it's a lifestyle change. Hopefully she can give up her margaritas and sugary dunkin drinks.
I also know several people who had gastric sleeve done, many of them have gained it back and badly. With the exception of 1, she has just maintained a healthy lifestyle. She said that the surgery was her jumpstart because everything else had failed. She still ups and downs, but nothing like before and because she took her time and really put the work in, she doesn’t really have a lot of extra skin.
Tracy can’t and won’t do any of that. Especially the alcohol part, that’s going to be her downfall along with not actually exercising.
She wasn’t even fat and nobody was really calling her fat.
After each baby, instead of sitting on her fat ass and making excuses, she could have worked with a personal trainer, promoted the hell out of them to build their clientele (Olivia did that with DJgotmeFIT) and some meal prep companies and she would have been back to the body she so desperately thinks she will be happier in.
And I’m saying this as somebody who also sometimes wishes they can have the surgery as a jumpstart because weight issues have been a lifetime struggle for me.
A new body won’t make her happier. Surgery won’t make her happier. Happiness has to come from within. Even I’m struggling to learn and accept this.
