Keeping it Positive

Nov 17, 2011

Just had an appointment with the diatitian, and she made me feel great about my worries about the surgery. Around this time I have been feeling doubts about having this surgery done, and she pointed so many good points on why i should go through with it. I kept feel unworthy of a tool like this surgery after seeing so many extremely over weight ppl at some  meeting session, and it just made me feel aweful I am way under them and even though I have some health issues and just added another one ( high blood pressure) I still felt like it wasn't so bad my situation against theirs. But the diatition pointed to me why aint I important too, do I have to wait till i am 300 or 400 pound to feel worthy. I am addressing my problems now before it is way out of control. I should feel guilty because I am trying to better my health! and some ppl that can't understand what I am going through should just keep to themselfs or keep away from me. Negativity is all they project and I don't need it. I want to be healthy and not keep adding sickness after sickness  and wait till I'm close to death to do something about it. I have a chance I am a great candidate and my surgery team are all in favor and recommend it highly to me. thanks to them I am keeping forward on this mission to success!

Feeling Anxious

Oct 26, 2011

My doctor put on some pills called Phentermine 37.5mg. These pills have giving me so much energy and keeps me going all day, they also keep my apetite at bay. The only thing is that I am a college student and need to study for my finals, I feel so much exiety it keeps me from studying. I try to do exercise, get on my Kinect and do some Dance Central, but it still hits me when I sit down. Haven't weighed myself since I want to keep it of my mind until I finish this term of 1 month. I need to lose 20lb for my surgery or more, and hoping i reach it in a month. I have so much to worry about and feel like it to much at time. I love how this website lets me see other ppl worries and I can relate to what they are feeling. Beleive me support is the most important thing you can have in life.

Thank you all!

Surgery Fears

Aug 09, 2011

Hi my name is Amy and I am considering the gastric bypass surgery. I weigh 250lb and I'm 5'6" , I have done a bit a research on the internet and have talk with my doctor and I'm also on the road to start the steps to do the surgery. I have seen a lot of videos on youtube of alot of people that did th surgery and have a massive excess skin. I can't stop feelin terrible for these people that passed to being obese and now are skinny with skin dagling from all over there body.
I'm so terrified of this happening to me. Does some one have a good story about how there skin recovered..

Thanks
Amy
