Cryimg and feeling down



Recommended Posts

Rant all you want! Seems to be the day for it! I didn't eat or drink even near the limit today. Felt like throwing up with everything. Will kick it in high gear tomorrow! I had bought a lot of samples before surgery, in all different flavors. Now they are all too sweet. So much for being prepared. Should've waited and saved my money. :)

I say that everyday... liquids I can do pretty well, Protein not so much! I will be 4 wks post op tomorrow!

Sometimes it is hard to look at the positives...I feel better physically, but sometimes now it seems all anyone wants to talk about is my surgery. But other times all of the positive energy coming my way freaks me out. 9 weeks post op and changes still happen on a hourly basis. I just try to focus on the positives, but sometimes it can be hard. Just hang in there, we have all dealt with amazing challenges in one way or the other and I am confident we will get through these as well!

Thanks for the words. My issue is not like that. I'm 9 days out and doing well. Just struggling with the hormonal changes. I'm feeling positive just cry and feel down for no reason at times. That's why it doesn't make sense except explained by hormones.

Reading all this reminds me when I had my surgery 3 years ago how sad and angry I was at the beginning, but it gets better with time, easier. Wish I would have had a venue like this. Just hang on, all these feelings are normal for what's going on with your bodies right now. It's all worth it

Our doc has said if you struggle with Protein to call the office. I would start with that.

Ladies I can say this first I'm 5 weeks out and just started to feel "normal". Heads clearer, I feel strong again, finally feel up to a little exercise like walking and going out with friends on occasion . I felt like I was recovering forever. We need to be patient and I'm not lol I want it all done yesterday. Since our weather has finally become nice go sit on your porch for a few minutes a couple times a day feel that sun we waited so long for sip a refreshing drink smell that fresh air and relax. It will all be so mucho better very very soon. Your actually on your way to a better you!

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
