I am very new to the site and hoping that I am doing this post correctly.
I was sleeved on 2/27 and I have been so depressed and regretting it ever since. I was originally told I could go back to work after 10 days, but the Dr wouldn't sign off because I had ripped an internal stitch, so I was out for a month. People at work are constantly watching what and how much I eat like I am an animal at the zoo. I can't eat more than 2 ounces at a time, i have to use a stop watch because I eat too fast, even though I never feel hungry I shovel food in! I can not stand any protein shakes. I am over it. And then 10 days ago I ended up in the ER with 5 kidney stones and my urologist wants to do surgery. 2 surgeries in 2 months scares the hell out of me. I was prescribed vicodin for the stones and I vomit every time I have to take it. I am out of sick and vacation time. I have no energy. My 13 year old daughter cried to me today that she thinks I am going to die because of WLS. I am just struggling looking at the big picture. That hopefully I will be healthier in the long run and be around for my daughter and fiance. I guess I just needed to vent. I am grateful for the weight loss so far. I have a pseudotumor cerebri and I have not had one headache since 1 week post op. So I know there is positive changes already. My presurgery weight was 296, day or surgery was 284 and I am 244 today. I am really glad I found this site so I know there are others out there that struggle as well.
