ONE YEAR AGO TODAY
One year ago at this time I was just trying to wake up. Woke up puking and one year out and still puking. It has been a very very hard journey for me. But it has went by really fast. At this time last year I was a big 260 lbs. Not sick just overweight. Today I am underweight and very sick. Everyone ask me if I had it to do all over again would I do it. Well yes I would. I believe things happen for a reason. I had this done for a reason. Who knows I could have had a heart attack being so big.I need to gain back 18 lbs. I am trying so hard. Yes I get scared and yes I get very depressed. But I am a single mom with 2 kids. I have to carry on and do for my family. My kids are my life and my every breath. I love my kids so much. I might be to skinny but I look good doing it. (lol) but still can't get a date. I feel like I am at the beginning again. Still lots and lots of foods I can't eat. Still only thin deli turkey meat. I love veggies and fruits. I can hold down all fruits and veggies. Cheese still makes me sick. I can't do anything with milk in it. Nothing at all with sugar. Nothing at all fried. I eat the protein bars. I love sugar free gummie bears. Well enough about myself. Have a blessed day to all.
Things I still can't do that I want to:
can't ware short sleeve. (got the bat wings going on too much)
can't ware short pants. (legs are so wrinkled)
can't have ps (cost to much)
can't ware a plain bra (boobs are totally gone)
can't see my belly button
and most of all>>>>>>>>>>>can't get a date.
God bless

I see you have dr. Mitchell. I worked with a lady that worked with him. He is a very good doctor. Wish I had picked him. She has tried to get me to go and see him. She said he would help other people that the other doctor hasn't helped. I think I said that in a nice way. God bless and thanks for the words.

Amy,
I'm sorry you've had so many problems with your WLS. My wish would be for everyone to have such a smooth journey as mine has been. I hope you can get straightened out soon, you didn't say but is the doctor doing something about your throwing up problem? If not, maybe you should get a second opinion. I was so afraid of this surgery at the beginning, after seeing my daughter lose 160 lbs and now me losing 130 (and I hope still another 25 more) I remember reading all the problems we could have if we didn't do everything right. I listened to my surgeon and nutritionist like I do the preacher! I still get anal about things I see other people slipping on and I fuss at them. We had this life threatening, expensive surgery to get a whole new life. Nobody said it was gonna be easy and believe me, I still struggle every day to eat right and get in my protein and fluids. Girl, please for yourself and your kids, find out what's wrong and get yourself fixed. Those kids need you and we all want to see you get better so you can feel good like the rest of us! Hugs to you!

The doctor has sent me to a gastroenterolgy. He is very good and nice. He is the one doing all the test. I really believe he will help me. I just don't want to dry up and leave this world. I love people and I love living. I worked in home health 15 years with old people and I loved it so much. Now I work with babies and children. And I love it too. I enjoy almost everything in live. And most of all I love My God in heaven that has been taking care of me. I know things could be alot worse. Sometime I get depressed and think I have hit rock bottom. But it don't last long. My kids make me laugh and brings me back to life. Thanks for your kind words. God bless
