I agree with the group. You may want to check into medication of some type, with a psychiatrist that understands WLS but also your history. Diabetes when out of whack can cause major mood swings, plus what I am reading depression is common among us that are in the WLS group. I have chronic depression and plan to research what I have to do to stay on my medications versus not having them. I think today my medications are like my glasses. I can't do without either.
Please don't beat yourself up, because if we were perfect, we wouldn't have needed this surgery, we wouldn't have weight problems, we would be a perfect size. Relapse is a part of addiction, what is good is that you are aware of it, now get up, dust yourself off, and get back on track, and learn from the relapse.

Thank you for your reply. I am on medicine CYMBALTA we tried to up it to get me through this rough spot but my insurance would go for it. I also take other meds and I see a therapist and a phyc reguraly(sp) I am doing much better now and really watching what I am eating. I am over beating my self up. I am seeing a gastro doc the 18th. hopefully Iwill get some answers as if I have broken my pouch or if there is food in there not going through that is making me nausea. I have had depression since I was young I have been on all meds you can think of. my step dad has bipolar and we didnt know it grwoing up I suffered alot of abuse mental and physical but I have worked through those issues, but i am working closewith my docs..... thanks again sharon. and darlene has helped me so much to really all of you have you all are great.
