Describe your behavioral and emotional battle with weight control before learning about bariatric surgery.
I grew up in a traditional, post-depression southern family. Food was the easiest(and cheapest) way to show love to everyone. My Grandmomma was a fantastic cook and she loved everyone around her through food. She was the rock of our family and everyone looked forward to time with Grandmomma and Granddaddy indulging in our favorite foods(She had 4 kids, 7 grandkids, and numerous great grand kids...each had a favorite food and she fixed ALL of them for every get together) and sharing the love of a closeknit family. The sad, unspoken truth of this situation was you "loved her back" by eating her food. The more you ate, the more you loved her. The more you loved her, the more she cooked, and the more you ate...and the cycle...

Two Week Post-Op
posted on 1/31/12 8:08 am
Well, another Dr's visit has come and gone. I am down another 9 pounds which puts me at 32 pounds lost including pre-op. The nutrition class was very interesting and the recipes and discussions of what to eat, how to eat, and what to think about regarding eating were very interesting. I am still on full liquids and so ready to move to "food". I don't truly feel hungry but all food I smell I want. I am getting in my proteins and my liquids, but it is an all day event which includes reminding myself to drink, drink, drink. I'm so happy with my progress. I've lost almost 25% of my total excess weight. I have yet to hit a stall, but I am prepared that there could be many along my journey. Almost everyone I speak to says they can see a significant difference in my appearance...Wish I could say the same.
