rant about health



Recommended Posts

I am a chronic pain patient. A year ago I went to a long- term pain rehabilitate program which really improved my quality of life...I decided to get healthy hence the rny. Welll as I was exercising pre op, I somehow pinched a nerve in my hip which left me in constant pain again....the I found out I tore the labrum in my tight shoulder. Then today I found out that My back is totally f'd up with arthritis and intrudinng bone spurs that are causing me more nerve pain. I'm ssssoooo tired of being squsdhed by health problems. I walk everyday but I get jealous when I see posts about how herd people are working out. I really just want to get healthy and toned....I guess in God's time....I still think that I'm failing because I can't really push myself when exercising..n YET!

You're right...I just need to do the best I can and leave the rest to God. I'm sorry about the rant, I just found out about my back today and felt discouraged.

Rant away!!!! It's hard when we are going through something and its keeping us from being where we want to be. That's life!:(

Jealousy is such a human emotion so don't feel bad, let it be a drive!

In time! In time!

Wishing you all the best.

Surgery date 7/25/12

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
