It’s important to Relax! Use the tools set before you. Keep talking this out. A lot of it is mentally and emotionally charged. Center those two and ease in right behind the physical aspects. It’s so easy to have transfer addiction and obsession. I’m telling you that I experienced mental fatigue that set off a chain of reactions in my body system after system. The mind is very powerful and it can impact so much. So I believe it you trust the tools provided, make a plan and don’t deviate from the plan. Be comfortable with yourself, forgive yourself for regain and keep your course of action. You will be successful.

I was a front line healthcare provider struggling with my own bought of Covid and pneumonia then being rushed back to work to help serve my community. My staff experienced so much loss personally and collective but our cooperation didn’t seem to care at all…this had me rethinking my entire existence. So much of my identity was my job, it was where I escaped all my personal tragedies. My place of escape became a even bigger tormentor. I had a breakdown suffered anxiety and major depression to the point were 3 doctors took my of work on disability. The mental distress factor plays such a larger role in how we cope and what we use to cope; our hormones and the selection of meds we need despite our desire to keep weight off. Support is so important. An advocate is so important. A provider that listens and understands your complaints is extremely important. You are on the right track! I know this was a few months ago, how’s everything going with you now?

Considering making a video about all I know about WLS ,getting rid of unwanted weight; free to the community. I want to present irrelevant information; something people would want to hear. Would anybody be interested in this? Answer "YES" if I should make the video

I’ve put together a few lectures from time to time for some of health events. Recently, I've received some messages with questions similar to yours…asking how I got rid of the unwanted weight I gained after surgery. Ive given lectures on this and I also talked about my struggles with how I wanted to have a fuller life without a negative body image. I’m finding many of us struggle with this after WLS.

Yay! Can I send you a message? @KarenLR75

Have you looked at Holistic Medicine, Functional Medicine, Integrative Medicine or seeing Naturopathic doctor? As a healthcare provider I know that the current state of medicine is in shambles. Providers are burnt out and cannot care for their patients as well due to the demand of insurance companies and performance metrics. The healthcare industry is a business; patients have suffered and providers are emotionally bankrupt because of it. Productivity goals have made the level for care, and time to spend, and talk to & examine patients horrible. There has been a wave of healthcare professional leaving the constructs of the healthcare corporations and opting for lower pay, to get their lives back, care for patients and use their expertise to its highest potential. A lot of these top tier professionals are opting to go into holistic medicine/functional medicine. The providers have the freedom to help patients get to the root cause of their ailment. It would be worth it to give these providers a chance to look into your case. I know this has lowered your trust for healthcare professionals but give one of us the opportunity to gain your respect back. I want to encourage you to overcome all the limiting beliefs and not give up. Help is out there. There is someone who will hear you and has the skill and expertise to aid you in your recovery. Do not stop talking about this and do not stop looking for help. I know it may be hard to see right now but You Got This!

Yay !!!🤩

I had Surgery 20 years ago and there was so much I did not realize. There were not as many preliminary requirements like having to go to class or losing wt prior to surgery. In fact, When i found out i was approved I went on restaurant tour for 3 months because I knew i would not be able to eat like that anymore. I had my surgery 3 months after i was approved for surgery. I am so happy things have improved and I'm excited about all the innovation. I am trying to get feedback from the community. I am a pharmacist and have been asked to give a lecture on the bariatric experience for a functional medicine group I am a part of. I am an old timer so your feedback is appreciated. I want to present relevant info. Curious to see where this goes. Thanks so Much
