Give your opinion to tell or not
wyjcole replied to New Me 787's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I seem to be an over-sharer. I was keeping it quiet but then I opened my big mouth to my sister-in-law. I am sure that will come back to bite me in the ass. I to believe this is my journey but I find myself wanting other people to buy in. Since I decided to have the surgery everything has been an up and down roller coaster. I think I finally understand that I need to keep this decision to myself until I know I am strong enough to share. That will be hard for me sine i tell everyone everything about myself. My surgery will be in mid july early august. -
This is so difficult!

I am also sorry to hear that you are miserable. I do hope that you find a rhythm and can make this work for you. I'm debating between the sleeve and bypass and hope to have surgery in August. I would be interested to hear other's "real life" stories and not just the good stuff. -
Hi my name is Jackie. I am working through all the hoops that are required before I can have bariatric surgery. I had my psychological evaluation and there was concern about my suffering from depression and my obsessive eating. I was wondering if anyone out there had the surgery and had the same problem I have, depression and obsessive eating. How have things worked out for you? Any help is greatly appreciated thank you

Bariatric surgery and depression
wyjcole replied to wyjcole's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
Cowgirl Jane, Thank you so much for the open and honest response. During my initial meeting they mentioned addiction transference. I had forgotten about that until you just mentioned it. I meet with the nutritionist next week. I will definitely add that to my list of things to talk about. -
Bariatric surgery and depression

I am taking Zoloft and Lamotrogine. I don't mind taking the medication for life, if it is going to help me. I have a tendency to obsess over food and just want all the information I can get to make sure I'm not jumping into the fire. Jackie
