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. :)
