help! I know this sounds ridiculous, but I think something is very wrong!

"it's sad I can't be honest about that"  lmao omg...  you are too much. Sad people come here for help, or guidance,  advice, people to relate to etc.  And get some bull**** assumptions like this from random people...  I don't know any of you, I came here and opened up about a problem I'm having. .. why on earth would I lie about something so small. .. and you continuing to assume and make your rude comments is what's sad!

I wasn't being rude. It is sad you can't be honest about that.  Most likely that is your problem. You opened up and everyone gave you good advice. You are the one a acting ridiculous. 

Lmao. You are something else!  Wow. Unbelievable!   Ok great! Ya ok.... maybe I have ulcers...thanks!  Have a great day! INSANE! ! 

Im reading all of this and I am just shocked at how nasty people on this forum are. I started the forum yesterday and already have people being complete d-bags and  your thread is the first thread I opened and started readiong, other than my own and here is more of the same..
smdh

how absolutely sad and pathetic of some people to sit around on forums all day being nasty and rude to people who need help. It says so much more about them than us.

hang in there love, I wish nothing but the utmost best for you, and I hope you can find a local doctor to help you out. Your situation sounds very scary.

Thank you so much. I really appreciate you saying something, I started doubting myself and thought maybe with everything going on I'm being overly sensitive !! Thank you for your support and kind words and justifying my feelings... I don't understand why some people have to be so nasty! What would I have to lie about if I can here looking for some body to help me that may have had a similar experience. ... to be insulted and called a liar and to be told these nasty things.... ugh it's frustrating enough but then to have some miserable person make me feel like I have to defend myself? !  I don't get it.... aren't we taught as CHILDREN "if you have nothing nice to say...."  just disgusting! 

Thank you hun for speaking up for me when I was starting to doubt myself!  

Whether you smoke or not the cigarette you are holding in your hand is clearly lit.  When you zoom in you can see the ashes at the head.  Posting a photo like will most definitely make people think you smoke. 

Smoking can cause big issues with WLS.  You need to get to help with both your head issues and stomach issues now rather than later.  Wait to much longer and your children will not be saying "mom you look like  a skeleton", they will be crying over your casket. 

You keep saying no surgeon will take your insurance, your surgeon is hours away.  Is there not any hospitals in your area that know about WLS?  You can't go to the ER and have tests done? 

This is dayysss old, I've bee  in the hospital

Think about taking your vitamins regularly. Defficiencies are fast to creep up and hard to catch afterwards. If you have trouble with pills there are liquid vitamins and there are also vitamin patches (patchmed.com). I looked at your pics and you don't look emaciated (yet!). The bathing suit shot is nice! You have a great waist line! No extra skin after your weight loss? Your thighs also look like you don't have a skin issue. How long were you carrying the excess weight for? 

You have done a great job in the losing department but you really MUST take charge of your health now before you end up with life threatening issues. You have to sort out your psychological and physical issues so get thee to a doc soonest. You have 5 kids??? And how old are you? I want to say under 30? You have to try your best to be around to accompany and support the little people you brought into this world.

As a mother your life is no longer just your own. 

Awww your so sweet Julia!  Lol. I'll be 40 on the 27th...  I've had 5 c-sections, the bathing suit hides the stomach skin...it's HORRIBLE. .. stretchy, gross!!  The little skirt thing hides the extra hanging skin on my upper inner thighs... it's horrible as well... and the the boobs... totally gone! Haha. I take a multivitamin 2 times a day... a lot of the time I'm forgetting to take my afternoon one... ugh, I take extra vitamin D and Iron and calcium in the evening and a probiotic 3 times a day and then a do a b12 injection once a month. ... I'm on a lot if medications for my thyroid being destroyed and blood pressure and a few other things  that I can't take with vitamins in the morning and some in the evening I can't take when taking my calcium so sometimes if I'm out and about I miss, or time gets pass me and I have to take my "more necessary" meds I'll end up not being able to get in the vitamins in the evening or falling asleep etc... I am doing so bad juggling everything with timing and idk... I know there's no excuses and they NEED to be priority. ..I am going to look into the liquid ones...that would help a lot. I'm wanting to ask my doc about my injectable vitamins. .. I don't know if that's possible but would make everything easier...

oh and I've been carrying all the weight off and on 19 years now. .. the longest being the past 10 years...I had done Atkins a couple times after my 2nd and 3rd child with great success.... though after getting pregnant with my 4th... it just wasn't working anymore... it actually made me hyperglycemic!  So 10 years I'd say ...my stomach is the worst though. ..it can be just stretched out so far ugh. It's so gross. And the gobble neck!!

You might consider asking your doctor about the new vitamin patches.  I honestly don't know how well they work, but I am due for labs here in a couple of months, so I am trying a multivitamin patch partly to see if it helps my calcium levels.
