8 month post op

Had follow up yesterday. Have lost 47% of excess body weight. Not too bad but not where I wanted to be at this point. It will come but its slowing way down. Been fighting some pretty heavy depression last couple of weeks. Thyroid levels are way off and hormones are crazy. Been a tough road here lately.

Your not alone....Everyone struggles one time or another in this journey....I know last week I had a tough time with food....This week it is better and I am on track again....

I got scared I was losing too much to fast..lol..That is one of the reasons I never lost before...I kept it as a protection of sorts..Now I am dealing with it all!

I have depression as well and it is very easy to find ourselves in a low place at times....

this to will end and things will look up! Just keep swimming, just keep swimming!

Thank you for the kind words. Depression has always been a battle for me and seems to be grabbing me by the horns here lately.

Go in and have all your levels checked! I have battled thyroid and PCOS issues for years. It leads me to dark places from time to time. I've battled double depression off and on.

Do you have a therapist you can meet with to have a session or two? I count on my sessions, have for 8 years.
