Guest guest Posted January 28, 2004 Report Share Posted January 28, 2004 Hi, I had my surgery October 3 2002. The first day of the rest of my life. To date I have lost 140 lbs, and 10 sizes. I have gone from a 24 1/2 or 3-4x to L or 14. I am so excited about this. I chose Open. For me there was no other way, I feel that if you were having your car fixed , you would want them to OPEN the hood not do it thru the grill! AM I right? I have recently(Nov. 23rd '03) had a Gall bladder surgery and Hernia repair. All went well and I am recovering nicley. However, now I am expeiencing some emotional issues. All of the issues I kept down with food are surfacing. I am not handling this well, and am having severe stomach pains because of it. Now my Doctor is referring me to a Psychiatrist. Hopefully we can get to the root of the problems. Has anyone out there had these issues with emotions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 30, 2004 Report Share Posted January 30, 2004 You've done such a great job with your weight loss!!! Have you reached your goal, or is there more you want to do? I know exactly what your talking about with your mental health. That's the other part of the equation. Your doing great with your physical health now you need to work on the other part. I think going to a therapist is a great idea. I'm actually kicking around the idea too. I too struggle with ways of dealing with the stress of my job, other than eating (which is what I used to do). Please keep us posted, and let us know how it goes. By the way, what's your name? Take Care, Open RYN 4-7-03 351/224/??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
