why is it that my "friends" ; the very same people who are supposed to be in my corner during all of my lifestyle changes, are the main people trying to discourage me or trying to change my mind about WLS... first of all, these few have NEVER BEEN OBESE, and they damn sure didn't have to grow up heavy for 10 + years...so when they say "just change your diet and exercise" like thats gonna get my fat ass on somebody's track and run miles (HELLO IF I COULD DO IT ON MY OWN, DO YOU THINK I WOULD BE HAVING MY STOMACH ALL CHOPPED AND SCREWED?) , or my favorite "you're cute this size, you'll look funny smaller"...yeah the diabetes, high blood pressure, and heart disease that runs in BOTH sides of my family is real cute...i'm no longer content with being the funny, witty, and quick big girl, the girl with "such a pretty face", or the timid, demur doormat...they need to get with it or get lost...its time for me to discover who's really rooting for me to be healthy and who isn't...

it seems as if my surgery is never going to happen, but i know it's not true...i've already been through the initial one on one physician meeting, and am in the middle of the mandatory 6 month Dr supervised weightloss program my insurance wants me to go through before they officially approve my surgery, and it's a bit frustrating...i'm just ready to get everything over with, but at the same time i'm glad i'm being tested like this to prove to myself that even before the tool of my gastric bypass surgery i'm able to cut back on the things i'm not supposed to have and get up off my behind (something that's always been harder than cutting out the good stuff)
