Oh No...It's been 3 weeks and I am not losing weight! ADVICE!!

Aug 11, 2009

Somebody, Anybody PLEASE give me some advice!! I am 3 weeks post op and I have only lost 13 1/2 lbs. :O(  I stopped taking my insulin because I ran out of needles and I hadn't gotten my paycheck yet to buy more needles and it's been about a 2 weeks. I recently bought needles and started my insulin again but I am not motivated now to do exercises and all I think about is not being able to lose weight. Sometimes I think I am not going to lose weight at all that it sometimes consumes me. I am now eating solid foods and sometimes I think I am not chewing well enough because it feels like the food gets stuck and I have to either bend over or try and walk it down. Lately, I found myself geting so discouraged and feeling like this really sucks and maybe this is not going to work for me. Sometimes I eat and I feel like I am not getting full but then I just stop eating and I feel full. When I eat I really don't eat much but a few bites or a few spoons full of something but I often feel like I have eaten way to much. Then when I get on the scale it doesn't move!! I am so frustrated I want to scream.

I am trying to get in all my protein and water intake but that is hard too. I do exercises for 30 minutes every morning but I feel like I should be doing more but I am truly not motivated. AM I GOING CRAZY?? IS THIS STUFF ALL IN MY HEAD? Why do I feel like this? Does anyone else feel this way?  I NEED SOME SUPPORT!!  I don't have a lot of support at home and that sucks for me too. I truly feel like I am losing my mind! Can someone please talk me off the ledge!! I REALLY NEED SOME FEED BACK!!
