Two Weeks Out

Oct 08, 2008

Yes, i'm now two weeks out and i still feel horrible but not as horriable as i did the week before. The thing that bothers me the most is the lack of energy.  I'm winded so very easy, so i do spend much time exercising.  Actually i can't even go shopping for food for my family. I'm trying to come to terms with the fact that this is a transitioning period to my new life. I just wish i was feeling like my normal self.
This is a very hard time for me because i have never had surgery, so i'm not quite comfortable with being down for such a long period of time. I'm not uses to people having to wait on me because I'm not capable of doing things for myself.  I have actually at certain point of this venture said that "i hate that i did this to my body".  I meant it.  I don't like being down.
With all that being said, i have learn something about myself while trying to get approved for surgery. I learned that i really can accomplish great thing once i put my mind to it.  You see, i started looking into this surgery in 2003, but my insurance stop covering it, so once they started covering it again in 2007 i was on top of if and no matter what my family said i was going to have this surgery. Now that i have had the surgery my family has been very supportive.
To end this entry i would like to say, yes, there are day when i which i hadn't had the surgery, but i believe there will be even more days when i feel blessed to be able to have the surgery.  Like this past monday. I go up to pick my son up from school and while looking in the mirror i notice that my body was already changing.  Then i put on my clothes and i started to do the happy dance.  Then i realized why, i did what i did. Until next time.  Hope i didn't babble to much.
