Struggling. . .

Diane, you have to be one of the sweetest people God ever made!!!  Thank you so much for your kind offer.  I may just take you up on it.  I am my own worse critic and judge.  And when I feel like a failure (as I do right now) I'm just that much harder on myself.  This too will pass (I hope!).

Love ya, Donna

 

Love ya too girl, Call anytime! Diane

Donna I doubt anyone will flame you - and if they do, shame on them!! I feel for you because I know just how you feel. I am still pre-op but my life has been that chaotic-cannot-get-anything-going-right that you are going through. God will answer but not as rapidly as we wish he would.  :) Hang in there and vent away.  If no one else will, I will listen. Mary

Thank you Mary.  You are very sweet.  Good luck on your surgery! Hugs, Donna

Donna Hang in there. This to will pass and you will be stronger for it. We are here to listen and support,  you are not alone.  Love ya, Reenie

Donna,

I am sorry that you are having a difficult time. Even though you may feel things are falling apart, you have been doing an awesome job and I don't think you have failed at the surgery thing. Look at your loss and you are not as far out as me and have bypassed me. Look at that and be proud. I know at times depression can cloud things and ,ake everything look bleak. Things will get better with time and will work out. Just have the faith. Lisa

I am sorry you are having a really bad time.  Please concentrate on your health and your mind. You have control of that. The other things will take care of theirself. If you let yourself go down you can't help anyone. Your weight loss will begin again.. Remember the post you have read ......everyone  ha**** stall points. Do not give up on weight loss or yourself.  If you rex will not speak to you.......pray for his health  and happieness.  But take care of yourself ....please. You are at a begining of a new life.....embrace it.  You have my warmest wishes and prayers for better things to come your way. God Bless you, Myrtis

Donna, Sometimes you wonder is this ever going to end and will I be happy again. All this hardship you are going through will one day be in your past. You may not relize it now but you are gaining wisdom through all this. My heart aches for you and I wish for you that things will start to change for the good for you. You have been given a tool to help with your weight and it isnt going to go away. Maybe it is on hold right now but it will be there to help you when you are ready. I am glad that you can come to ths board and share your feelings. I hope that when the dust settles you will become a bright and shinning star. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers.                                         Annie

Donna, I'm praying and believing that God will work this out for you.  I know He will.  I like the saying, "When you're down to nothing, God's up to something."  I know He is, and He will see you through this.  Holla if you need to, I'm around.  PMing my phone numbers after this. Take care. Ellen
