    tamou37 got a reaction from Pookeyism for a blog entry, Why Some People Change After Vsg   
    I had my surgery 7 weeks ago and was not doing well the first few weeks as most of us. I was full of regret, depressed and so negative. I think that was normal at 2 and 3 weeks out. I stalled at 3 weeks to top that up.
    At the beginning I was so happy, I met few people who had the surgery hoping they will support me and understand what I have been going through and not being judgemental but instead one of them was critical to my situation. I was so tearful and shocked when I heard that. At 2 weeks post op what did she expect? why she forgot how it was for her post op?
    I lost confidence in people around me. I thought friends are there to listen and feel each other’s pain.
    Any way, getting better these days. Training for 1 to 2 hours a day. Losing slowly but started weighing myself once a week only, ease the stress.
    Happy that I am eating healthy smaller portions.
    I want to stay the same person always and not to forget where I have come from. I want to always support newbies without being judgemental.
    Peace.

    tamou37 got a reaction from ShannonH for a blog entry, Depressed. When It Will Get Better?   
    This is just my own personal experience till date.I just need to express how I feel and speak up my mind.
     
    Almost 4 weeks post op and I feel depressed, down and lonely.
     
    I am becoming so emotional and tearful. Small things make me crying. I am not catching up with our friends as before cause I feel like staying alone.
     
    Stalled at 2 weeks and hasn’t lost any since. It is like I need this on top.
     
    I did the surgery to lose weight and feel healthy but I feel weak, dizzy and always hungry. After few failed IVF, I am hoping this surgery will help but scared to death it wont make any difference.
     
    I have back pain since surgery and it is not going away. It is causing lots of pain especially when I am laid down on my back or sitting long.
     
    My scares still hurting and I can feel some tightness in my sleeve. Not knowing if it is something I should worry about or it is normal.
    My husband is supportive but will never understand what I am going through.
     
    Praying things will get better soon.
