I've missed my WLS family!!

[seawaves]

Hello everyone, i have been lurking but not been commenting for sometime, however i feel well kind of lost without my WLS family :wave_cry:, as most of you know things where pretty tough for me straight after surgery low blood pressure which knocked me out for sometime but alot worse than that was my mental state it was NOT good, anyway enough doom & gloom i am now 11 weeks post op & just yes only just getting my head round my bypass, things are not easy & even after an 18 month wait lots of talking to people + research until you go through it you will never know how difficult it is, i know everyone is different this is just how i feel, food wise all pretty normal although i am still struggling with picking between meals (the wrong things!) how can i have gone to hell & back & still do this to myself seriously i get so angry but still old habits die hard!!
I do not like christmas as my ex partner was his most violent then & it brings back bad memories this yr i can't even eat my through it! So i thought what better thing to do but get back in touch with my WLS family, sending old friends & new lots of love Emxxxxxxxxxx

Welcome back honey So nice to see you again. Where better to come for some love and hugs! Christmas can me a really painful time for lots of people. I used to hate it as both my parents died at Christmas, for years I put on a happy face for the kids but I find I quite enjoy it again now. I like the build up and buying pressies for loved ones.
I hope you can start to enjoy your bypass more very soon. I know the head side of thinghs is deffinately the most difficult part of it all. Every time I sit down to watch TV I want to eat something naughty! So hard to change the habits that we have had for so many years Lovely to see you back hun (HUGS) XX

Thank you!, i haven't thought about seeing anyone purely for the fact that when i had my many appointments before surgery the attiude of the team was that as i had counselling for many yrs i should be ok, yes some of it was to do with my weight but mainly it was about the abuse i suffered in my relationship, so maybe it is something that i could do with, i shall look into this, thanks xxxx
