Feeling alone and discouraged



Recommended Posts

Feeling alone and discouraged so I'm walking away from everything and everyone. Don't know why I feel this way and I pray and ask God to help me and to guide me but I must can't see or hear what he is telling me. Well maybe I'm just dumb or maybe he isn't saying anything to me. All I know is that I'm tired of this feeling of being alone and people not talking to me unless they want or need something. Time to leave

I feel like I have no body in my corner I've gained 11 lbs then lost 2lbs but now I'm not losing weight at all. I feel like I'm failing at this and my family doesn't care. I don't want to be 370lbs again.

God will always be with you. I am in the beginning of my journey and I had to say no to people around me who always want something. I did it for myself so I can concentrate on my health & to prepare for this new lifestyle. Sometimes you have to be selfish and let others know that you have to concentrate on getting healthy and you wont have time or brain power to deal with them. This is the time for you to continue moving forward in your new lifestyle. Nothing no one says is important. What is important is that God is with you & he will never leave you. Your family your friends may not support you & or stop talking to you but ... God will always be with you & you can always talk to him. Your help comes in the name of the Lord who made heaven & earth. Please lean on the Lord to guide you & keep you strong. In Jesus name. Amen

If you are a believer, God is always with you! He may not always answer prayers right away. But sometimes he answers them in ways we do not expect. Please don't lose faith. Hang in there and hopefully things will start looking up

Take it one day at a time, I know exactly how you are feeling. I actually didn't tell anyone I was having surgery which was my choice but when it came time to reach out because of the decision I made the only person I could run too was God.
He has definitely comforted me and reminded me to be patient during this journey.

I'm here whenever you want to talk and help support each other.

I know this app has definitely helped in so many ways reading and asking questions.

Could one say that God showed you the way to this website? I'm told he works on mysterious ways.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
