Just had surgery dec 31st and I don't feel bad but a little confused I have so many questions running through my mind. Some things are like I wish I never did it and should I get it reversed. Will I have to be like this forever. I started this journey weighing 410 I'm 347 now before surgery but I feel so down and lost. Any advice or ideas please let me know thanks

There are a lot of hormonal changes as a result of having a major surgery. This is not at all unusual, you will start to feel better. One of the things that helped me was to get moving. I started walking on day 3, just one lap at first but it really helped me feel better. I am 2 1/2 months out now and up up to 5 miles. Good luck and let us know how you are doing!

Everyone goes through those feelings of "remorse" at first. It does go away and eventually turns into "why didn't I do this sooner?"!! Take this step by step and make the most of it. And enjoy the journey! Even the bad days.

You'll be great--best of luck.

Yes I had surgery on dec 17 th and I was feeling the same exact way. It gets way better trust me. I would cry everyday for the first week. I am doing much better now i am on purees now. It gets better hang in there.

I am three weeks post-op. My sister did this a year and a half ago and she has been my mentor. My experience is that there are going to be down days when you question your decision. It seems to be part of the journey. I can only go by what my sister has experienced and she says that this is the best thing she has ever done. One day maybe you and I can say the same.
