1a. Can't Eat or Sleep

I haven't exactly been doing well for sometime but I have been making progress. Now I have run into the problem of not sleeping, headaches, burning eyes, backaches and not being able to eat at all. I put myself on a schedule and at scheduled meal times I just stare at the food. Finally I put it away. I have been doing a little better at getting the protein and suppliments in, but I am not there yet. I have even started going to the gym more. It would all be progress except not being able to eat. Sometime I get sick from food, but not always. Any thoughts? Of course I will tell the doctor on 10/20 but it's a long way away. I am a little over 6mo out. Sorry I haven't checked in, in a while.

hello,

Actually i have been sick and tired for about one month and half after the surgery but after tht i feel ok except tht some kind of foods i can't eat (meat mainly). but i think tht u need to take more calories becoz u r exercising think about having before going to gym some little nuts and dried fruits if u can eat them or instead one apple and take your time in eating it and chew very well. i wish my advise is good for you.
best of luck

Engy.

I am a year out and have been dealing with access skin in my stomach area which is some times hard to get past. some people can tone up that area and some have to have that skin removed everybody is different. but it also depends on your comfort level and how you feel about your self some can not get past what they look like with the access skin. some can hid it well in clothes. my biggest delemia is the cost of a tummy tuck if I had the money I would defitenly do it for my self. how you see your self can some times gauge your success in the long run.

I too have a problem with the skin hanging. When need be I do wear a spanks to hold things in. But no matter what, I call it "window dressing" because I do try to buy clothes that are on sale or even better yet clearance. That is my favorite part of the store.
I have a hard time looking in the mirror without clothes, but love the look when I am dressed. I am 3 years out and had lost 135# but have gained back almost 10#. I am now on track to lose it again.
Surgery and what we go thru afterward is not easy, but gaining our health back is soooo worth it. Good luck to you. Remeber, you have not changed what the person is inside. No one is perfect and as weight lost patients we all have our " badge" of excess skin, but I have learned to try to work with it. The biggest problem that I did have was under the apron of the stomach would get a rash, but everyday I use corn starch.
 I wish you luck with your continued journey in this world of weight loss..
 
Norma
