Cancelling appointments



Recommended Posts

As a few of you may know, I posted not long ago saying I have my pre op appointment and psychological evaluation scheduled.. unfortunately I am cancelling my appointments and not going to have surgery. Thursday night I had a miscarriage. I was 7 weeks pregnant and didn't know. I think my body has been through enough for now and surgery is just not something I want to do at this point. I wish you all the best. Good luck with your journey everyone. Thanks for the good advice I received in my short time on here. Take care xx ~ True

So sorry for your loss. I too have had the misfortune of a miscarriage in my lifetime so I agree that sometimes a physical and mental break is a must. Hang in there, dont forget to take care of YOU!!

i see you are still on the board - November 3rd

how are you feeling?

can't relate to the sadness you must be feeling about your miscarriage

but i'm sorry to hear about your situation

have you decided to change your mind about WLS

are you thinking of having surgery

whatever you do, is the right answer for you

wishing you the best

take care bud

Thanks for your reply.. Mentally I'm doing better... cancelled all of my appointments and haven't really decided what I'm going to do yet. It's been a rough week.. although I need surgery, it's just not something I can put my body through right now.

you are/have been going through hard times

miscarriage

take a rest - grieve

no hurry for immediate decision

you've waited X amount of years for WLS

you can wait a little longer

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
