Weight Regain - Help me Please

[Guest guest]

I went to Monterrey to Dr. Rumbaut. There is a greater risk w/ DS for

malnutrition than RNY. I hope all goes well for you!

wouldnt do it because I have Hepatitis C. Evidently malnutrition can cause

liver failure, and he thought there was too much of a risk of malnutrition w/

the DS. Where did you go?

Thanks Shauna,

I know my family loves me, and wants me to lose weight; & once they see I'm

not going to die during surgery, we can start down that " positive " road! God

bless your sister!

Hi ,

I know for me I felt like I was going to be the one that this was not going to

work for. I am finding that it is up to me if that happens. The changes that you

make are going to have to be perminant. You will have to forever eat healthy,

exercise, take vitamins, and drink all that water. Say no to yourself A LOT! You

have to be dedicated and remember you are going to fall off here and there, what

matters is how fast your get back up. You can do it, we all are a testimony of

that. For those of us who have had the surgery understand how you are feeling

right now. It will also help if your family and friends support you throughout

this. Sometimes when I go out to lunch with my sister, she never puts me in a

position to not have a good menu to order from in a resturant. Our place of

choice is usually Penera Bread for their soup. Then she watches me and when she

sees that I am about to the point of full, she reminds me. I love her so much

for that because the first time we

went out, we were talking away and I was not paying attention to my food and the

next thing you know, my soup was gone and I was sick full. To have her support

me in this after all I have done, I couldn't be more grateful to have her. You

need a great support system and not to take it personal when they remind you of

stuff. Every little thing that will help you stay on track, let it. You will be

glad they did.

One week from today I fly to Mexico for my RNY. My family is all asking

me what's going to prevent me from gaining all the weight I lose back.

I don't have an answer for them that they believe with my lifetime

history of lose and gain back more, lose and gain back more. Please

help me! I'm doubting my capabilities tonight.
