depressed..

Today I was supposed to have my consult but I had to cancel it. My transportation person called me last night and said that his car is not doing right and was gonna be put in the shop, so he couldn't get me there. Utica is about 2 hours away and I didn't know of anyone else that could take me and I don't drive. So I am very depressed today. I was so looking forward to going for my consult. I called this morning and rescheduled they dont have anything before the 31st of October. *sigh* I binged last night cause was real depressed. Today I'm tryin to fight the urge to binge. debby

Hey Debby, Fight the urge and if you must give in have some fruits. Listen it's part of your journey and there will be disappointments along the way. No one should think that this is without disappointments. Cheerup before you know it the 31st is here. Perhaps you should try to have a back up. Wishing you a GREAT day and remember you have tons of information to learn and read about your WLS so use this time effectively. Also start writing. Journaling your weight loss experiences will be well worth it a year after surgery and beyond. All the best, Marcy

Debby, Do not be depressed, its not like you will not make it to your appointment at all, Keep your spirits high, and a positive attitude and everything will fall into place. When I was scheduled for surgery I had to change the date due to cri****tances with my insurance carier and it was upsetting but I knew I was on the right track. One month will go QUICKLY! Dont BINGE go for a walk. Kimberly 238/175/150

Debby, Hun I am sorry to hear that you had to cancel and please try to keep yourself up, do not let this get you down. You are still moving in the right direction. ~Hugs~ There are things along this journey that can really put us back but you have to try and be positive hun.... I am not sure how the weather is by you but if you can try and get out of the house some, take walk or just sit outside with some water or tea, drink it might just take that binge feeling away.... Well it is worth a shot hun and the 30th will be here before you know it... ~hugs~ Debra P

Debby, Im sorry to hear you are depressed....very understandable though. This journey can be filled with bumps......you wont feel better after you binge, but I'm sure you know that already. Use this time to get all of your information and questions together before the 31st. Wishing you all the best on this journey. Janean

Hi Debby I am so sorry to hear about you missing out on your consult. I know how bad that can feel. I just felt I had to stop by and let you know that as long as you have faith, everything will eventually fall right into place. please don't be so hard on yourself. Just re-schedule your appt., pick up that head, put a smile on your face, and know that there are better days ahead. Don't let nothing bring you down. You will be alright !!!! Good Luck and God Bless you on your journey...... Blanquie

Debbie, I just had to cancel my appointment too . I was suppose to have my screening yesterday morning. I went to my colostomy surgeon on Monday for a problem I am having.They had to schedule a cat scan and next available was Tues, same time I was going to my appointment! Here's the kicker. Same office.There were people there getting theirs done. The next morning I had to go all the way back there (1 hour in traffic) for a cat scan and not my screening.I was so disappointed But I waited this long it will not hurt to me to hang in another month. Meanwhile I am still waiting for my cat scan results! What was that rush? Hang in there kiddo, it will go by fast. Janet
