6months has arrived!

Nov 23, 2010

Wow! 6months is here....What a trip... All I can say is thank you for giving me my life back! 
You can bet your sweet ass it is has not been an easy trip to take and more like a roller coaster ride. You start out excited and scared to pieces and learn something new each and every day. Dont give up on yourself ever and know in the end its all gonna be worth it. You dont hear all the good, the bad and the ugly about this surgery, its more like you learn it as you go. All I can say is find you a good support group and GO! Attend them! Its where the tricks of the trade come from, listen and talk about your concerns and feelings. It is what we are all there for.. dont be a fly on the wall, if your belly has been hurting ask why.. I kept hearing everyone speaking of dumping, well I never dumped not one time..but let me say I have had the dry heeves more times than I can count..Why ??? Well my body decides to say hey lisa...You had surgery dont forget that little piece of info and there I am in the bathroom and stuck on the toilet and bent over near the trash can.. ugg not pretty huh ? Well Im not here to lie to you or sugar coat nothing... Would I do the surgery again Hell to the yes! I can handle the dry heeves and the bloating from wanting to drink a coke but unknowing will it hurt my belly this time, because it didnt last time...

 You Live and Learn.... Try things, if you make an error so you are human...arent we all ? No one is perfect and no 2 ppl will react the same..jsut because so and so can drink this or eat that, can you ?? Try and see, if you cant...well dont give up, be brave and try it again some day ... No hurry to drink or eat this...after all you are here to Live Longer Now! We have plenty of time to taste this and that... You will be amazed how little you want something after you give into the craving of something. Dont fool yourself and think I can out run the need of cravenings... You will Loose and if you dont.. More power to you, because I couldnt beat the odds. I tried that bite of cookie, or that drink of coke...sometimes it stayed down and other times it didnt. The answer is ... we are human and not robots.

I wish I could tell you more and more how grateful and thankful I am to have had this surgery.  Words doesnt do it justice, but trying on a pair of pants or a shirt.. well it speaks loudly... Hey this doesnt fit anymore...! Or admire something you want to wear and say to yourself... oooo I see you hanging there...soon you will be MINE! heheheeheh

Knocking on 70 pounds and feeling awesome, but I must say,..... I felt very badly not but a few days ago when someone else I knew had the surgery and she was down nearly 100, and had it done After I did. sighs right ?? Hell NO .... had to drag my ass away from the feeling sorry for myself snydrome! Be proud of whom and where you are...you got here with good long hard work and each day meant something new to you or leaving something old behind. Dont let that...well she or he is there and Im not ................ Listen to me...You will be there too ONE DAY..as they say..Rome wasnt built in a day...well we didnt put on theses pounds over night and they arent coming off over night! ...

Be Patient, Be Alive.......... Be Proud ....... I am proud of you and happy you are reading this ... If you have any questions or need anything at all I can help you with .. please email .. I will do all I can to help you out ....
