I Definitely Regret Surgery.... So Far!

[Kapoorvilla 117]

i cant believe that today marks a yearsince i changed my life. wow!

i walked in that hospital as one person & rolled out in a wheel chair as another!

i went thru hell & back to get where i am but i am so glad that i made it!

i started at 273lbs. im now 142lbs!

thank you for all the love & support everyone!

I am so glad this thread is here! I relate to it having had my own complicatiion. You said in one of your post that the surgery almost took you from your family, I have really felt some guilt over the fact I chose a surgery that almost took me from my daughter when she needs me most. I also have felt the conflict of being glad I am losing but yet saying if I could go back I would never choose that risk. Sometimes I am angry because my complication was surgeon error (cut bowel) and had that not happened I would not have suffered the pain and the finical nightmare of bills would not loom ahead of me. Yet it was the same surgeon who saved my life that almost ended my life. I do wish he would show a little more remorse but I guess he has to think of his liabilities.

He has made several jokes about my bowels I don't find the humor in. When he opened the incesions to drain them and found the small bowel out of place he ask if I wanted to see what it look like. Then on a follow up visit he ask if my bowels where staying in place. I told him I hoped so because that is something I had truly been concerned about. I really do not find the jokes in good taste at all

Now seeing how good you are doing a year out makes me hopeful. I weighed 277 on 11/30 was sleeved 12/5 and weigh 256 today. I am on to purée foods. I am still not getting a full 2 cups in a day yet but I make sure I get 60 grams Protein and as close to 64 Fluid as I can so not concerned with small volume.

Have a great Holiday thanks for helping me see what some time may do to the situation.

thank u love

You have me feeling so much better right now, you sounded exactly like I do now. I was recently told that I have a stricture, it's excruciating to eat and I want to feel normal again. It's hit me so bad that I've sunk into a depression, I very rarely get out of bed and I'm in a funk because I don't feel normal. I'm glad you're doing better.
