One Month After Gastric Bypass: Buyers Remorse
Wow...thank you for sharing that! It so beautifully explains the emotions that I've felt quite often since my surgery in January. 90% of my journey so far has been great. I really haven't had any issues...only had the foamies once or twice, most food sits just fine in my pouch, I've lost 73 pounds and 45 inches...all AMAZING, WONDERFUL, ENCOURAGING things. But when I'm in the middle of a stall, and feeling discouraged and hopeless and that I probably made the BIGGEST MISTAKE EVER, none of those accomplishments seem to matter. Knowing that stalls are part of the process is helpful. And I'm starting to look at them without so much negativity. I'm starting to look at them as an opportunity to reaffirm WHY I had the surgery, how my life has improved (and will continue to improve), and to be grateful for the progress I have made (and will continue to make).
