On the other side.....

Jan 18, 2010

Two weeks ago I was under anesthesia and under going a RNY surgery. Wow, can't believe it's over and I have made it through to the other side. How do I feel? For the most part really good. My energy level is good. I am not too tired. Today is my first day back to work so I am excited to be back. Very excited that a couple people told me I look like I lost some weight (I didn't tell anyone pre-surgery what kind of surgery I was having). I have told them since I have been back. I am still a little sore on my left side. Do I miss eating??? Hell yea! I was at a funeral luncheon this weekend and my daughter ordered a grilled chicken pannini and fries, then yesterday she had a taco dinner. Good gracious I would have killed for both of those meals. It's sad, it's definitely like a loss when everyone is sitting around eating dessert and I am sitting there waiting until I can take a drink after I ate part of my scoop of chicken salad. I am mourning food. I am not hungry at all which I am thankful for but in my head I want what everyone else is having. I know that this was a good decision for me and that I am going to be healthier. I want to be that person who eats to live, not lives to eat. I am getting there. I am a work in progress.
