frustrated and ...anxious?



Recommended Posts

Just needing to vent a lil I guess...have my 1st seminar (mandatory) appt january 19th, but am anxious to get process started. Getting more and more disgusted with myself..have pretty much been so self conscious about being naked in front of hubby forever..finally am not worrying about it because I know I'm going thru with this and am going to feel better about me whether its 10 or 100 lbs I lose. But am growing increasingly disgusted loking at myself and the fat ass legs and am so frustrated!! I'm sure someone out here feels this way...needing some words of encouragement or ??? Ugh I don't know..lol

Oceansunset,

I feel your pain!:willy_nilly: My seminar is not till January 23, and I am losing my mind. I want so much to be on the road to a new me. But I have to remind myself that in my thinking I am on the road. I've become more aware of the choices I make in food. And I have been talking to people about my decision to have the lap band. I never used to talk about my weight---if I talked about it somebody might think I was fat!!:unsure: Oh wait, they can probably tell by looking at me.LOL Anyway, I know what you mean about being anxious to get started. Hang in there. The 19th will be here before you know it.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
