I know we are all different but with our surgerys so many of us are the same!
so far I've been lucky and not had the hunger you discribe.
I've had my other issues. Again while I know from what I've read and also Reenie our Dr A now gives patients a sheet about Low blood sugar an how you can get it after weight loss surgery -for me it was something i'd always had just not as drastic. I don't need to go into details cause everyones read it before. enough said about that!
But I think the point I'm trying to make is while I might not have the hunger issues you guys are suffereing with I believe you when you say yhou have them!
don't you find that one of the biggest things we get is when we complain we are not believed??? That is what really ****** me off! pardon the wording there but its true. If anyone else went into their doctor and said I'm having this or that right away they'd start with different tests and stuff. for us its like well everyone gets hungery. Geesh! duh we KNOW that but for us and the size of our tummys we shouldnt go thru it.
I've been wondering about how we relate to those poor individuals who have had their stomachs surgerically altered due to health like cancer. I had a friend many years ago who had stomach cancer and they had to take her's and alter it. I dont' know how never did get the details and for her the cancer had spread all thru her body so the surgery was just another way to torture the poor thing.
But I do know that people had that surgery all the time and live their normal life expectancys. Ok so how do they cope? what are their issues and are they the same or close to what we go through? I've tried googling things like that but just become so board by all the jargon that i give up reading.
I also wanted to say that when i read things you all have written I also note the date of your surgiers.
I dont' know if it is a co-winky-dink or what but when you guys who had your surgery in the beignning of the month start stuff and i had mine at the end of the month i usually will see the symptoms you all disccribe a few weeks later.
not always but sometimes so I read and file it away in my little bitty brain so that if i do get something odd I can say O yes this one or that one had that its normal for me!
When I went to work at the school almost 27 years ago I weighed 218 pounds and last Friday I weighed 218 pounds. In all the years I've done every diet known to man and had surgery and nothing has worked. I told my friends I've weighed anywhere from 169 pounds to 263 pounds in the last 27 years and I'm right back where I started when I went to work there. Really in the last 52 years my weight has been like a roller coaster ride. I sound like I'm feeling sorry for myself and I AM ! But, I'm not giving up, I'm going to keep on trying.
Y'all have good long weekend! Judy
