Met with my Surgeon - 6/20/14 is the Date!

Apr 20, 2014

I am so excited: This was 8 months in the making, and now it will be here in just 2 months.  It took me a long time to make the decision, but I have no doubt that this is the right decision for me.  I am having the VSG done.  I also went back into therapy to discuss my eating disorder (binge eating) and its emotional sources.  I need the restriction I will have, and it makes me feel comforted to know that it will be there - this new limitation.  While I know that it is a tool, as we all have been told, and that diet and exercise will be part of my new lifestyle, I still need this tool.  Before I gave up on weight loss altogether, having failed so many times, I did have a regular exercise routine. Losing weight can be done, it is the keeping it off.  While I don't feel like I have anything new or original to say, it still so helps to say it!  I just wanted to introduce myself to the group here and celebrate my long-awaited surgery date. :)
