zsnaani 29 Posted August 3, 2016 Struggling!!! A whole year has gone by already and I have received more negative than positive from family and so called friends. Now I am concerned and feel ashamed because I have not lost as much as I should have. I did not even Celebrate my first surgerversery (sp). Just healing from two major surgeries at the same time (RNY & gallbladder) was enough but now I realize that the negative reactions sent me more into a depressive state. My starting weight was over 500, maybe there is a willing buddy out there who has been successful with losing a massive amount of weight too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JaniceRNZ 2 Posted April 23, 2017 Sorry to hear that you have not had support from your family and friends. Please feel that you are supported on this forum. There are a lot of people who have had surgery and that most of their support comes from online forums. I'm one of those people. You are not alone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
