3 weeks and 2 days

Apr 27, 2012

So, I thought I would write a few words and vent a little.  First and foremost, I am soooooo glad that I had this surgery.  I have overweight all my life and can't imagine being in a normal body range.  I am very surprised with some of the emotions that have hit me.  I can be plugging along and suddenly remember something from my childhood as clear as day.  I have been wondering, as the weight comes off, if I will remember more things.  Maybe even something that possibly made me just about drown in food.  Don't get me wrong as I am not blaming anything for my food/sugar addiction but just makes you wonder.  Also, when I signed up for the surgery I didn't do a psychological appointment nor did I met with a nutritionist.  I know my doctor's office has them but for some reason I haven't met them yet. 

Now, here is my rant.....(this is my warning in case you want to stop reading)  I am so surprised with my lack of energy at the end of the day!  I used to be like the energizer bunny, going, going, going, going.  Well folks, this isn't the case anymore.  I come home from work exhausted.  I have alot to do at home as well, I don't have time to be tired!  Is this normal?  Well from reading on the forum it sure seems like it!  (done with this rant) 

Lets talk vitamins...mine is a powder that you mix into your drink....can we say gross!!!!  It isn't horrible if I mix it into my protein drink but still....why do they think bariatric patients want things so sweet?!?  I am ready to unfreeze my membership to the gym.  I can't wait to get back to my zumba classes and cycle ones!  I wonder what it will feel like to be 28 pounds lighter????

OK, I think this is it for today!!  Thanks for joining me on my all about me page..hahah
