Holding back the tears



Recommended Posts

* I hate when the past is mention with untruth to it.

* I hate being put down

I'm being strong & maybe stronger then ever. Hubby today said I was bad luck since he left a sign he needed made in a hardware store. I was home decided to take the kids to McDonald for a snack before the park. Hubby was outside approach kids & I said maybe you shouldn't touch them they might give you bad luck. He walked away. Time passes...

I was minding my business in the kitchen. All the sudden I honestly don't know what happen that he went off on me. Saying his mother picked me off the streets. I was never on the streets. I was a working teenager & I was in school. I was looking for a room to rent & I went to live in a room I rented. I wasn't living there for free. If this woman decided to feed me I'm going to eat. If she decided to reach me how to cook or the basic or have a conversation yeah I was going to talk to her. I lived in her house. She was wonderful to me. That's how I met my now hubby threw her. She figure I was a good woman for him even though I was a teenager. So him saying she got me off the streets it's false. He starts bashing my nationality. I'm pure Dominicana he is Puerto Rican. I told him if he had issues with me why did he get together with me. We started arguing.

I know the up set part of me is talking right now but I think after I'm fix it won't take to long & maybe leaving with my teenager by the time she is 18. We won't need to suffer so much.

Maybe my bills will be paid by then.

Maybe I won't have money.

Maybe I won't have a place to live.

I will have peace love happiness and that's what I need. I will work out my bills & such as it comes.

Yes I'm at the end of my rope,but rent isn't cheap so I will have my surgery,and save money until the day I move out. I was searching,and looking around,and did find some places. I'm going to check out one of the places,and it's not housing,but they charge you rent according to your income. I'm not moving yet,but looking,and searching makes me feel like I'm in control,and I'm able to move on with my life. Until I don't go out there to look with my eyes how would I know where I might be moving to. It's in an area I have no idea but there is a huge park in front. I want to go in the day time,and at night time when the action begins so if there is drug dealing or funny business going on I'm not going there again that's why I don't want to leave this place. Morning day or night and we have camera on the property. Nothing ever happens here that's why I feel safe but whatever. I will search till I find the perfect place.

Money can't buy happiness. Keep your head high and reconsider the timing of moving out for you and your kids.

Surgery date 7/25/12

So true.... With my daughter being 18 she is able to hold down any job,and she can be added to a lease so it's better for me to wait just a little bit. Plus in the time I find a place,and god knows wait for section 8 to open I'm going to come up with rent money,and mind you I don't work. Waiting on SSD so I need every penny I can find,and get. Waiting 2 years it's better then waiting 4 years.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
