Topic: RE: Winter blues and weight gain

Seasonal depression is a real thing for many. What are you doing about it? Can you pick one thing to focus on that you could do? Have you tried a therapy light if you can't get out into the light each day? That has shown some results when "just" the winter blues (and of course, definitely recommend consulting a medical professional if you need to).

Topic: "My 600-Lb. Life" Star Dead @ 30

Wow. I just don't understand this .. the article states that no cause was given, but then seems to imply it may have been a suicide, based on her past "mental health struggles". She looked SO great after losing her 500+ lbs. But, I guess if she was a depressive before surgery, her WLS didn't cure it .. Like WLSers often say, "it's body surgery, not brain surgery" . (btw, I never knew she was transgender until now) ..

Have to now sadly add her name to the dozen or so stars on the show that have passed away to date, including at least one other suicide. It's a rough life when you're S.O., physically ..

Topic: Winter blues and weight gain

The winter months are always hard for me to get through but this year I have the blues like crazy and I have been gaining weight because as usual I am eating my way through it all. I can't pinpoint what triggers my depression like this! I am sabotaging myself over and over again and I know this.

Topic: RE: Surgeon or PCP?

Well I changed my PCP to one that is more suitable for my needs and cancelled all future appointments with my care team who assisted after the surgery. I'm also scheduled to take classes with the dietician at the grocery store who is 100% better at helping me.

She's a **** mother and she gained weight before the pandemic not during it, unless she gained more bakc. The woman lies about everything.

She is pre op and almost 700'pounds. She has a very bad food addiction. Once her sister put 32 pre made MEALS in her fridge and she ate them in 2 or 3 days. She has many health issues

I really don't understand what people see in this woman. Maybe because she's a train wreck? So recently she and her boyfriend spent $150K on cocaine. And she's also gotten porcelain veneers on her teeth. I wonder why the TV show (or whatever) is still paying for all of this. What a huge waste.

I've seen a little of the show and I do not think she ever got the surgery because she hasn't lost the required weight to safely perform the surgery. Her sister did have the surgery, but not long after got pregnant.
