My Gastric Bypass Journey -Onwards and Upwards-Well this is a start

[mandy-1975]

Hi Mandy,

Sorry I haven't replied sooner, it's purely selfish as I struggle to think how to put things in words. See, I don't see you the way you see you, I see a caring, kind, funny person who has a lot of people around her who genuinely care about her. I see someone who has been very successful with the surgery, and has changed so much physically in a very positive way. I see inner, and outer, beauty.

I understand things are tough for you, and I wish I could magically make it all better, but I can't do that sorry You know where I am if you ever want to talk. I know I never sign in to MSN any more, but there are lots of other ways you can reach me

:hug99:

Shel x

Thank You xxxxxxxxxxxxx

Hi

Yes the doctor may feel i need them, but when you are so low, it is all my energy to look after my son!!!!!!!

I don't want you or anyone else to feel sorry for me, and if I have come acroos like that then it was never meant to be....... I don't need yours or anyones pity.........

I try my best everyday! that is all i can do....... in many ways I do well, looking after my son, doing a full time job...... but it is still so draining

Thanks

yes i can imagine when your not well your energy is very low. i admire you for looking after your son and working despite that

i hope you feel better soon.

i really want to apologise for my last post. i was very nasty. i am sorry.

i hope i can be more supportive in the future.

I don't post much now since learning that someone has it in for me so apologies that I have only just caught up with your thread.

Mandy, when we have our day out we could go to the new Southampton Ikea if you like? I have never even stepped foot inside an Ikea!! I hear its the biggest one in the world.....

Brett - Mandy knows my past and I consider her to be a very good friend. She knows more about my past than a great deal of people. I am also 'damaged' on many levels so I can relate to you as I do Mandy. I see you where a mental health nurse - LOL I was a patient!!

[tesmaralda]

Hey chick rest those toes - I speak from experience if you don't rest you will know about it in a day or 2 and let the cold get to them. Hope your feeling better soon xXx

 

[thinkbethin]

Hi Mandy, I've been reading your thread and feel so much for you. You are not just a surviver, you are an amazing lady and deserve to be happy. You have a georgous lad there who loves his mum no matter what, good days or bad days his love is unconditional. Be strong sweetheart for you and Jordan and I hope you find yourself having more good days than bad. I know myself what its like to be abused. It took me 30 years to tell. On a brighter note I,ve just looked at your pics and you look absolutley fantastic and I hope one day you will feel as good as you look. Take care xxGaynorxx

 

[mandy-1975]

Morning all.......

Thank you for all your support, must admit, today is a real bad day, so hard trying to keep normal, when i just want to sob....... and sob....... was half way threw a book called resucing the inner child, apparently it is really good, well i got the part, where i relised just how screwed up I am.........

On a better note, my little one, gave me such a big hug this morning it was so good just holding him!!!!!!!
