WLS Post Op Weeks 40 & 41

This is not a happy video, although I do manage to smile through the tears. I talk about unrealistic expectations and feeling lonely.

(((HUGS))) I am sorry you are not feeling happy right now~ UGH! I hate that feeling! We all feel like that sometimes....you will come out of it!

You are doing AMAZING with the workouts! Thanks so much for making this video....I suspect that MANY people feel like this and never talk about it~

Thanks for the hugs Karla, I feel so much better now. I always end up feeling better, but it's so hard to see the light at the end of the tunnel when I feel that way. I'm kept up on the workouts even though I didn't always want to.

Thanks Angela. There's definitely fear there and it's so hard to avoid when I start feeling down. I used to be a really patient person, but ever since beginning this weight loss journey, that's gone out the window. Logically, I know I'm not alone, if only I could remember that when I'm feeling so bad. Thanks for the comment and the hugs :)

Aww, thanks for the sweet comment. I didn't mean to make you cry. I'm so thankful for youtube. It's one of the places where I feel I can be honest and not always be happy. Thanks for the love :)

[ladyblue3]

Thanks, yeah I really think that's been the key with my weight loss this time. To always keep battling and to keep fight. I don't plan on giving up this time. I'm feeling so much better. Thanks for the hugs :)

Thanks chica. Every other time in my life I know I'm not alone. It's so hard when you're feeling down to think of all the awesome people in your life. Thanks for the reminder. I'm looking forward to meeting you in a few weeks :)

Wow MJ, thank you so much for your honesty!!! We have all felt some of what you are feeling, you don't have to be completely alone to feel lonely. I have been in a room full of people and feel lonely. I'm pretty new here, but I know this has been a huge process for me, getting to know myself again. Take care and keep the updates coming :)

really sounds like you are low on estrogen.we wore estrogen patches for the blues.rx by the Surgeon, I know your surgery place isn't too supportive.but it helps with hunger and the down emotions you describe on the video..they gave me a feeling of well being (after having the blue type feelings you are talking about) estrogen really can drive you to eat like that...I wish you could try them some people use 2 or 3 at one time till they feel "right". Your estrogen drops off quickly with the lose
