I am scheduled for all my physical tests on April 27th, at 1:00. If these tests go well, I will have my surgery date. I have been informed its about a 3 hour deal. Then depending on this outcome I will head over to the hospital and pre-regsiter myself for my 3 day spa treatment LOL. Just kidding. My 3 day life changing opportunity.Its funny how supportive some people are to your face. Then words get back to you. Some words got back to me, that this surgery is "taking the easy way out" or "cheating". I got one question? Who says its cheating? The diet police? Their words are nothing that I have not said in the past about others doing this trip. Watch your words, because after 40 years I have learned you may have to eat them. Of course its funny that the supportive ones, are not dealing with weight issues, and the non supportive ones are the ones dealing with the same weight issues I have dealt with. It is also funny that we live in the Bible Belt of America, at how many stones are thrown in this area. Not only has this journey been an eye opening experience for me and in facing my own demons with food, it has been an eye opening experience in dealing with negativity. Really makes all other issues of bs float to the top. ANY weight loss is a journey and should be applauded. Whatever your choices. To do otherwise, and spew negativity, is to tell on yourself and the character you possess. I personally make this choice proudly, and it is in no way less easier than someone who diets and can control their weight. Its actually harder. Anyone can diet. But not everyone can diet and keep it off. These naysayers are victims of that same demon. I just choose to not be a victim of the yo-yo diet plan any longer. I choose something that will 100% work, with my dedication and commitment. And those finger pointers, and they are a small number, hopefully will learn the same lesson in the their own lives. And I guess when I am out in life, living life, and being active, and giving all I can to my family, that is the only reward I can ask for. God is good.
