9 months out

Jan 07, 2009

Well what a trip so far!!! I do have to say it has been the best trip of my life so far. For anyone thinking about surgery do it!!!! I am so happy I did. I have lost 125lbs so far and still losing. Yes it is coming slower now and changing habits everyday. I have come to realize that I have changed habits already without even thinking about it. I eat no pasta or rice anymore even though I know that I can have it in small amounts. I choose not to is all. I eat bread maybe a couple times a month at that. I would rather have my meat and veggies and fruit. Never thought I would see myself write that lol. I feel so much more alive. For the first time in years I can walk the mall without having to sit every couple of stores and I can bend over and tie my shoe. The drawback is having to keep pulling up my pants because I am changing sizes so fast I cant keep up lol. Something I really think I can live with.

Well I have not had any solid food now for 5 days. I am doing well. I am nervous for surgery but excited at the same time. I cannot wait to start my new life. I just returned from my daughters wedding. Next time I see my children I will be on my way to the new me. It will be so nice not to have to ask for a seat belt extender when I board the plane. Well looking forward to my surgery.
