Sometimes we all feel that way. Sometimes I think I only stay here because my mom could not take it if I were not here. All we can do is ride out the bad times. We pray for each other and may God help us all get through each new day.

Dear Dia, I don't have any magic words but I want you to know that you're in my prayers. Being morbidly obese is so terribly difficult and your feelings are almost inevitable. You're a young woman deserving this surgery and your day will be here before you know it. In the meantime, call on God to strengthen you and bless you so that your waiting time will be more bearable. Stay strong for your children and those who love you. It also may not be a bad idea to talk to a doctor about antidepressants. I was on them for a few years pre-op and may go back to them eventually. Big, gentle hugs my dear young sister; please know you're NOT alone. God Bless!

Hi Dia, I read your post and was very concerned. I felt the same way preop and even post op at 2 1/2 months I feel just as bad some days. Believe me I have been there and felt it all. It does get better I promise. If you would like to talk email me at [email protected]. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers.

Dear Lord please watch over her.. I know it is easier said but always remember when times get hard or sad get on your knees and cry to the lord. He hear your cries, we are his children and he don't want to see his children suffer, just like you wouldn't want to see your kids suffer.. Jesus Loves you.. I love you.. Keep your head up sister believe me I have been there, and I can only say PRAISE GOD for saving me.. And he can do the same for you LOVE YOU SISTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

" I know, O LORD of LOVE and LIGHT, about the need. Touch my heart anew with your DIVINE LOVE and LIGHT that I too may receive and give, sending your healing touch to others in need. I invoke your DIVINE LOVE and LIGHT towards Excellent Health, Loving Relationships, Right Livelihood and Right Alignment with my and soul's purpose. I wish to align myself with ALL THAT IS, my own I AM PRESENCE. I now open myself to receive your gifts and with your DIVINE GUIDANCE I will give to others and give thanks for the SPIRITUAL ABUNDANCE in my Life." SO BE IT, IT IS SO.

While I can understand the logic of your thinking, could it not be true that G-d was testing <b> you </b>. G-d is known for testing our resolve and dedication. I truly find it hard to believe that a loving G-d would lead you to this site and all it has to offer only to tell you this is not for you. Perhaps, the struggle that so many go thru is G-d's way of seeing if we are truly deserving of this wondrous gift. I know and defend the belief that religion is very personal and I wouldn't dream of trying to sway you from your path, except that you posted on a public board and in my mind that is a way of seeking help and perhaps confirmation that you need to not take this so to heart and to try again. Remember that the answer to prayers are not always what we expect and simply because you made a "deal" with G-d, does not mean that <b> He </b> made the same deal with you. My best to you in whatever you decide and may angels always walk with you where-ever you go.
