:(

Ok. It's been a while since I've posted, I've just been busy. So here's my problem(s). 1. I feel I am eating way to damn much (im almost 6 months out) an can eat almost a whole taco from like taco bell. My bf said im ok, he had the surgery an says im about normal eating now. 2. How does everyone handle the excess skin? I am only down around 70 lbs which doesnt seem like enough, but the skin is overwhelming!!! UGH!! has anyone found anything knew on the protein thing? i still cant stomach it so im not getting much another thing, headaches..does anyone get them like...migraine style constantly? BLAH!!! I am happy I had surgery but I am slowly starting to break my self down

Time for a pick me up!!! You are getting too down on your self. If you are thinking you are eating to much,, then slow down, take your time eating and you should try and drink your water. I have always had problems with protein but i must say i dont do my drinks I hate them so i make sure i eat alot of it durin the day. The headaches are from the protien, you need more nutrients. Get past the skin.... think of what you are gaining and how you will look in the clothes. The skin will start to firm up in places, you'd be surprised! I am 24 and it has happened to me. I still think that they should tie in a plastic surgery later option when you have WLS but that is just my opinion. Best advise I can give you is treat yourself well. That is what I do. I remember that I am working hard and I deserve the best, so keep working at it. I have depressing days too. I think everyone does... then I will have some little thing that picks me up,,, like walking through the mall and seeing reflection in the Victoria secrets window and being amazed that my butt is so much smaller!! You will laugh and it will give you a little "pick me up" ,,,, do something nice for yourself, thats what you need, lift your spirits, you did the best and healthiest thing for you. And if all else fails,, go back read your profile... diary... journal,,, old post... and remember how bad you wanted this. Best wishes! -KIM
