Guest guest Posted February 27, 2006 Report Share Posted February 27, 2006 , 50 lbs in 12 weeks? That's more than 4 lbs. per week! Awesome! How long did it take you pre-op to lose 50 lbs? I'm happy right now, pre-op, to lose even 2 lbs. a week! And you know that even post-op weight loss goes in fits and spurts, so right now your body is catching up to itself. There's a page in my binder for charting measurements, and at the top it has a reminder that weight loss can be measured many different ways. Keep that in mind. If your clothes are fitting differently, that's a sign that your body is still working on things and you're OK. Cathy C. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 27, 2006 Report Share Posted February 27, 2006 You will have little plateaus here and there as your body adjusts. I would try: 1. Make sure you are sticking to the basics: water,protein,exercise 2. Protein drinks are a controversy, but if you use them make sure you are only mixing them with water: no milk or fruit that will add additional calories to them.

Guest guest Posted February 27, 2006 Report Share Posted February 27, 2006 well it sounds like you have made excellent progress !

Guest guest Posted February 27, 2006 Report Share Posted February 27, 2006 Wow I would love to have one of your binders. I recieved nothing like that from my Kaiser dr. Over the 6-10 months it took me to get the 10% off I only lost 20 pounds. My clothes are fitting differently but I don't want the doctor to get mad because I haven't gotten the weight off. I'm really happy with what I've lost and I'm happy with how I'm doing. Thanks, > > , > 50 lbs in 12 weeks? That's more than 4 lbs. per week! Awesome! How long > did it take you pre-op to lose 50 lbs?

Guest guest Posted November 23, 2007 Report Share Posted November 23, 2007 Hi all it is JACKE again. I need some one or a lot of someones to listen and help, if you can. The last week has been so depressing for me. I can honestly say I am ready to die. Depression has set in so deep that I don't know what to do. I hurt all the time, am dizzy so much and the headaches are almost constant. I have been to the Neruoligist and he said to watch it and let him know if it gets worse. Hell with worse this is terrible. I know I sound like a complainer but You all know how this thing gets to you. Maybe the fact that I haven't seen my children in a month or so, or anyone else for that matter. I take wet and well classes and have a constant companion. He tries so hard to be supportive. Maybe too supportive. I feel closed in and alone. I can't do anything because of the pain and dizziness so why should I try or care? You see I am depressed. At least I know it and am asking for help, some advise. I want to see a therapist but then my companion feels he is not doing his job and I don't want to hurt him. I want to talk to family, children or sister, but I don't want to worry them. They are not without their own problems. So Please someone, anyone tell me what to do. I am so sad again and I hate it. I am sorry for the self-pity you are reading but Oh well, we all go there don't we? Waiting for a response from someone.

Inform him that its not your intention to hurt him but that you need professional help right now.. and get in to see a therapist as soon as possible.. if this person loves you, and I'm sure he does.. then yes it may hurt their feelings but when it comes to hurting their feelings or seeing you sick and so depressed you can't function then they will understand.. Take care of you, call your kids.. call your sister.. heck.. give me their phone numbers and I'll call them.. Don't go through this by yourself.. its a no win situation, and its a vicious cycle that we all go through.. please don't do it.. SEEK PROFESSIONAL HELP!! PLEASE HELP Hi all it is JACKE again.

I want to talk to family, children or sister, but I don't want to worry them. Jackie, First off--normally I'd say you'd have to get the disease under control. But right now, you need serious psychiatric help. Do you have a local psychiatrist? Or even a mental health or behavioral health center. These are walk-in centers, and they can get you assessed, and get you on an antidepressant. As for seeing a therapist-- your companion need not feel that because you need help to deal with the issues of mental health that come with chronic illness-- that he's failing you. Just tell him that-- that he is not failing you. Call the local suicide hotline and talk with a counselor. They are available 24/7. So someone is there. As far as family-- ok, they have their life. You need help and holding and if they knew-- they'd be there for you. This is a huge issue for all of us- and we need to learn that it's ok to ask for help! It's ok!! I wonder if the dizziness is the progression of the sarc, or if you are seriously dehydrated, or your blood pressure is through the roof or maybe your blood sugars or if you have endocrine involvement-- so it can be from so many different things-- that it's hard to say exactly what is going on. This can be assessed through the ER if necessary. The pain issues can be from all of the above. You need an ER eval. That would be the place to start on a long holiday weekend like this. If you haven't got any MSM-- powder or tablets-- can you send your companion to the local drug store to get some. This is so very very helpful with the body, bone pain that we get hammered with. I know it's hard to make the decisions when depression has you by the throat-- so please-- start with either the Mental health place or the ER. I want you to concentrate on taking care of you, instead of worrying about what your honesty with how you're feeling will effect others. They will get over it. You have to give those that love you the chance to be there-- and even if they don't "help"-- you will be helping yourself, and knowledge is empowering. Take care, and have someone let us know what you decide. Tracie NS Co-owner/moderatorCheck out AOL Money Finance's list of the hottest products and top money wasters of 2007.

Guest guest Posted November 23, 2007 Report Share Posted November 23, 2007 Jackie, I've been there, too, and you really need to tell your doctor what you're feeling. There is no reason to go through this alone. PLEASE call and leave him a message. Remember this is a 'season' that you are going through and it WILL get better. Do anything in off time to get your mind on something else. Favorite movies, whatever. Are you on any antidepressants?... because they often help depression and pain. I have to take narcotics when the pain is really bad. And when you're feeling better the depression gets better, too. Take care of yourself the same way you would take care of someone else you love. You wouldn't wait and let them suffer so why wait and let yourself suffer. The doc may have to add a med or tweek what you have. Hang in there sweetie, you are not alone. This is a medical issue and should be treated as such. hugs S.mydynasty40 wrote: Hi all it is JACKE again. I need some one or a lot of someones to listen and help, if you can.

Guest guest Posted November 26, 2007 Report Share Posted November 26, 2007 I know what you are going through. I have had to move back in with my parents because I need someone with me all the time. I too went through the depression and wanting to die, still do at times. I too suffer with headaches among other pains. My neurologist has me on a 12 hour pain pill plus one for breakthrough pain, also I'm on an antidepressant and other meds to try and ease the pain. You need to discuss with your companion that you need to see a therapist because though he/she is helpful you need someone else, you may even need to go inpatient for psych evaluation. I did, thought there was something terribly wrong with me. come to find out I'm one of many. Seeing your children can help, mine was here for the holiday and I had such a good week, paid for it after she went home but it was worth it. Try to see your family if you can I know thats not always easy to do. God Bless and know your in my prayers. Kimber > > Hi all it is JACKE again.

Guest guest Posted November 26, 2007 Report Share Posted November 26, 2007 I know what you are going through. I have had to move back in with my parents because I need someone with me all the time.

Guest guest Posted May 24, 2008 Report Share Posted May 24, 2008 Jackie, I'm having problems still getting into the room. I don't know if this is all of us that can't get in or what--- Joe should be around in a couple of days, I know it's final week for many of the students- So when Marla comes back I'll contact her and we'll see what the problem is. The firewalls can vary depending on what Antivirus and Spyware you are using-- so we may have to figure that part out also. Thanks for your patience. It's appreciated. Tracie help I am sorry to be the ignorant one but How can I see if my firewall is blocking going to faith chat and chat room. I really have no idea. Is there someone who could help me?
