how much more can a person take???
Well I went to the doctors yesterday, he took out my stapples and we had a very serious talk. I have lost another 10lbs just in the week I was home from the hospital. My doctor is not happy about that at all. It's not the fact that I lost weight its the fact that I can't hardly eat with out some pain. I go back to see him on Monday, he said between now and then I have to eat 8 small meals a day (just like post-op) I can't lose any more weight and if I do.... he will be putting me back in the hospital, putting the central line back in my neck.... and he said they would do one of two things... 1) they may give me a feeding tube or 2) they may reverse my wls.... I am very depressed, I cry at the drop of a hat, and I ask myself why??? why did I ever go through with this surgery???? Am I any healthier now than before??? nope!! The pure hell I have gone through over this past year and a half, yeah I lost 140 lbs, but who cares!! I sure don't if they are going to reverse it!!!! my husband is just beside himself. He hugs me and I disolve into tears... my belly is so ugly.... it is looking like a road map! I am angry I am hurt and most of all confussed.... I don't understand why this has happend.

Suzeq...I am saddened to hear this and know that you have been through hell and back.. I am so sorry. I wouldn't know how to feel in your position. I do know that only you know what you have to do that is best for you. I will pray for you and keep thinking about you. I am sending lots of love and hugs to you.
PM me if you want to talk. I have been through a lot, but nothing compared to you.
Hang in there...I know things will work towards the better.
