a week after surgery
Jun 15, 2010
hey everyone!i am new to this thing, but it seems like a cool thing tobelong to. i just had my surgery about 1 week ago. i was scared out of my mind and was pulled into the or crying my eyes out. this whole thing sux because i have genetic obesity and it's sad that i can't just shake the weight off. i've struggled my whole life and have been ridiculed as a child. i feel blessed that i had the opportunity to have the surgery. it;s only 1 week out and thank G-d i'm feeling well. :) things could not be proceeding any better... i hate surgery and i was scared out of my mind and went into the whole thing both numb and with tears. i have seen 10 pounds shed so far and i only hope that things will continue to move forward from here.
if there's 1 piece of advice that i can give anyone, it's mind over matter. it's hard and it's emotional but where there's a will there is a way! seriously. i love food and it's also cultural for me so it's shoved in my face even as i need to be on pureed food. it's definatly mind over matter.
new me, here i come!
