I've lost around 70 lbs in 6 months, docs, fam and friends are happy. The most important thing is I'm not happy. I still feel fat, which I hate that word. I drink to be happy,calm, just me. I use to call myself an alcoholic, not drink like I use to. I feel sas and depressed like this surgery was and wasn't the best. I never knew I was "fat" I thought it would make me happy

Happy nite

Don't be so hard on yourself. You should feel proud of your accomplishment in losing 70 pounds in only 6 months. That's fantastic. Your message is a little hard to understand towards the end, but hang in there. Remember, life is 10% what happens to us & 90% how we react. Stay positive my friend!

KJcasegreg,

If your stats are correct, you have succeeded TREMENDOUSLY! I can't even imagine what it took to get you there.

DO NOT get down on yourself. You are remarkable to have come this far.

And I do agree that you should talk to a professional. You need to let out your feelings in a safe way, and not turn to alcohol.

Remember, not only are they empty calories, but drinks will adversely affect your kidneys and liver, which post-surgery are already working OT.

Don't sabotage your success.

I wish you luck, friend....and keep chatting with us. We are here for you!!!
