disappointed - 5 days ago i thought my life was going to change..

hun, sorry you are feeling so sad, disappointed et al

you do know why you had WLS

as times passess - you will remember all the reasons you went through this

as your weight drops, your health will improve

i no longer take insulin/meds for diabetes - high blood pressure gone

other health issues of mine have also improved/resolved

co-morbities always improve, but many, many, many times "they" disappear!!!

you will feel better about yourself, allowing for even more good changes

your life is going to change!!!!!!

but you have to work for that change!!!

there are some other people that have "buyers remorse" right after surgery

you are not alone!!!!

you made the wise decision to have this life changing major surgery

please don't doubt yourself now

your aches and pains are not being minimized - but i'm so glad you didn't have any serious/major problems

many/most of us understand the "unfortunate" feelings of being naustious, tired, feeling bad all around

can't say enough that things should/will improve

is anyyyyone around for you to talk to???

mom/hubby/friend???

when you feel a little better (which you WILL)................

call your doc/NUT and find the name of a support group

if you had surgery out of state/country - no doc or NUT to call????

call your local hospital

just tell them your situation, just had bariatric surgery, looking to reach out to others for help/support/advice

i'm sure they will be helpful

people that you have things in common with are very helpful, not only now, but as weeks, months et al pass

ONLY drink Water right now

your poor little tummy was just invaded

its very sore, and you must/should/need to treat it with TLC

please don't drink anymore sugary stuff - or any soda crackers - or even puree til you are given the ok

things get better as time passes

could be as hours pass, or days - but you will feel better gradually

all the pain was nothing????

the pain was/is for everything good you will be experiencing as time marches on

don't worry about Protein right now - that will happen

for right now - no one can emphasize enough the importance of drinking (no sugary drinks ok )

you are starting the journey to a healthier, happier, longer life

feel better, so you can enjoy the ride

hoping for your recovery to improve daily

we are all here to give you support

good luck
