Gastric sleeve and borderline



Recommended Posts

Since I was about 10 I was put from hospital to hospital from program to program all because of some stupid person now I've got the strength to move past it when I was about 23 years of age or 24 years of age I was diagnosed with a severe mental illness caused by borderline personality disorder it affects my life very much I have to do special therapy for the BPD it's called DBT I struggled it for a long time moving from place to place Hospital the hospital state to state couldn't get my life on the control and I finally said I'm going to make one more move I moved back to Florida to live with my family I lived with my mother for about nine months it was just how we did not get along we didn't talk we argued we didn't communicate very well and we just constantly fought and I didn't like her boyfriend so I moved out I done moved to Melbourne Florida with a girl that did a lot of drugs and was mean to me constantly I finally got fed up and move out I moved Merritt Island Florida in the hood for my first apartment my my boyfriend at the time now husband he said he wouldn't leave me alone and I didn't want him to so we moved in together and started dating he's been at my side for the past almost 4 years about a year-and-a-half ago I got involved with the Sebastian River Medical Center Weight Loss Center and they've been a great support they're helping me to get in control of my eating I have struggled with eating most of my life actually all my life as far as I can remember I've always been heavy I've never been under 200 lb when I was a kid I was but that doesn't count I mean like really young I wonderful support system I friends and family and Framily they are sticking behind me no matter what I have my surgery is in about 8 weeks I'm really nervous I'm 31 married no children two cats a house car a loving husband great family great friends I think it's about time I did this it's time to get my weight under control it's time to have a new life I deserve it and I hope my husband sticks by me he said you got a big thumbs up there thank you for listening sayonara

      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... :(
