Im Breaking Down Tears & Tears

Sitting here crying. Why? I feel hurt. I'm a people person. I encourage everyone & I feel proud & happy with everyone having surgery & when a pound is lost it's a big celebration.

It's been a few months since I cry. Maybe I don't belong in this group. Maybe I wasnt fat enough to have WLS. I come so far & I have so many problems.

Sorry I'm going to think about my life. People don't understand how others struggle in life & this is the only thing that went my way. I don't get anything for free. I struggle every month with 2 checks per month to put food on my table to buy diapers. I have 8 diapers left I'm using bedding pad as diapers to make a stretch. I don't have it easy. Yeah I guess I got a quick fix in surgery that I still vomit every so often at almost 3 months. I have a wonderful life when I'm flat broke waiting for money to buy diapers.

Prayers and hugs for you. You can do this. You kids are so lucky to have a mom so dedicated. You are a fighter! Yes. Check into the lunch program. Some places even provided meals on weekends. I know some states have other programs for kids meals. I would ask. I know PA has WIC for the little tykes.

Thank you things have improve. Dealing with food stamps issues. Got it for a month & now they act as if they are doing me a favor. I got nothing this month going back & fourth. I just need it for a few months I'm trying to save money. After like 6 months I won't have to bother with it. I would have the money I need for surgery. My bills are almost paid for.
