I have battled depression most of my life, I have had a lab-band and now have the by-pass (21 Feb 2017) I prepared myself for the bypass by locking in my head that this is my choice and what I want because it is the best choice for me and the rest of my life. I kept reminding myself of this for months leading up to the surgery. I knew when you go through something so tromatic to your body you will be attacked by serval factors, the first being normal life, who as a calm stress free life anyway, the second your body trying to physically recover with a server lack of calories and nutrients and the chemical attack your body relieses to tell you to go get my calories and nutrition as well as the chemicals being relieses that where previously stored in your fat and on top of all of this you have the psychological attack you depression can inflict on you. And all without your usual crutch of food, because that is gone now and just the lose of that can make a person so depressed it is like losing your best friend the grief you can feel when you can no longer turn to the one ally that has been there for you all your life. This is where you have to remember the choice you made. Yes you have been able to rely on food but it has got so bad now it damages the things you hold important in your life so now it is time to leave food, not forever just for a little while so you can sort out more important things in your life and get a healthier relationship with food. As bad as things are now they are not going to stay like this they will get better, your entire life is about to change for the best but change hurts until you get through it a learn how to handle it. Look back at the events in your life that gave you the greatest gifts of your life chances are they where hard lesions and painful but you got through them and grew and that is what is happening now and once again you will get through it and grow your life is always going to be better because you decided to make it better! Congratulations!
