Feeling Down!

[cathykats]

Hey everyone I've been feeling really down for the last few days thinking have I made a mistake or not? But I know I haven't & I'm just being silly having the gastric Sleeve is a really big change & I am having trouble getting used to it!
So I woke up this morning and weighed my self & ................................ I now weigh 15st 13lbs Yay I would never had lost weight that quick before so I really know I haven't made a mistake xxxx

Oh thats brilliant Cathi. I think lots of people go through a bit of a downer after the op, wondering if it was the right thing to do. You've not had the easiest ride either have you. Go and get yourself a lovely treat, new lipstick, a bath bomb or something and have a bit of me time.

Glad you're feeling a little happier now you've had a weigh in.

Love Kate x

Hun we have all had major surgery and not only does it effect your body in a big way, our emotions go up and down, i had surgery 25th november and for the first 5 days i even struggled to smile... i think its normal and many people go through this. remember your not alone and your mood will soon lift. tmro i will be 2 weeks post op and i still get a little bit down but knowhere near how i was on week one.
Things will only get better and you will soon be a new and happier woman. im here if you ever want to chat xxx

Hi Cathy, Sorry to hear you have been feeling down after the op. It is good to hear that you are very happy with your weight loss - is there something you always wanted to wear such as jeans? What things are you hoping to do now that you are loosing all this weight.

Not sure that this weather helps either. The change seems to have been quite sudden even though it is the sort of weather to expect this time of the year. Good time to be curled up with a cup of soup at home.

My weight loss has slowed since I switched from the milk to the soup diet and I cannot work out why. Did you have to do either of these diets at all.

Hope all improves for you.

Cheers Cost x

Hi cathy,

How are you doing? I hope all is going well for you.

I am feeling a little bit apprehensive as the 20th approaches, I guess this is natural. I am gradually getting through my to do list of things to get done by 20th and it is going quite well. I am going to hospital on Wednesday for blood test and bp check - hopefully I will know by Thursday if 20th is still a goer. I am currently the first on the operating schedule for that date which means less time to hang around after arriving at 7am in the morning.

Hoping you had a good weekend and that you are really looking forward to Christmas.

Take care and thanks for all your support.

Cheers,

Hi Cost I know how you're feeling but you will be fine . I'm sure most people feel the same way.
Just think this time next year you will have lost a lot of weight and be soooooo happy

I'm feeling great I've been Christmas shopping and taking my son to school & home again but it is so cold I really don't want to go out.

I wish you all the luck in the world Cost! xxxx
