So stressed out...
:( I came into this, when I joined this board, really believing I'd figure out how to get my weight loss surgery. I stopped fighting for the RNY when I decided that it was teh DS I wanted and it seems to have put me at a brick wall for now. I cannot believe how stressed out I am! 2 weeks ago everything got worse when I lost my only source of income and all of a sudden I feel like I have so many things piling up on me stressing me out. I had a panic attack last night after a slight eating binge... I cannot gain this weight back. I NEED my surgery and I need to move onward and be strong and healthy for my kids. I am so sick of living day by day or hour by hour it's overdue for me to have some really good thigns happen! :( thanks for letting me vent.
I am sorry that you have so much stress on you right now.. as far as the weight loss surgery.. keep fighting for it.. never give up the idea of a better way of life.. I too went through a lot of struggles and battles trying to get the surgery.. I fought for 5 years and then finally saw the light at the end of the tunnel this past year, but Murphy's law got a hold on me and it took me over a year to get it.. fighting all the way.. I do not regret on minute of the fight.. I stayed determined and stayed on track with food.. this past year I have dieted so much and waited so long but finally it came together.. With each thing that went wrong it just made me more determined to fight harder..
Don't give in to the habits of eating when things go wrong.. find another way to deal.. that is a habit that must go away before surgery.. use this time to study up on the surgery and the follow up eating patterns.. learn as much as you can..
I will keep you in my prayers and I hope your luck turns around real soon..
