reflections - not the kind in the mirror
Feb 20, 2009
| I recently was thinking about what I have come thru this past 8 1/2 months since WLS. I have made some of the most awesome friends, changed my body in drastic ways, found my "old" me again, and found a new appreciation of my faith. There has been so much more to life after WLS than I ever expected. I expected the "down-sizing" of my clothes. I even expected the attitudes of friends and family that would be supportive and not so much. But I never expected the way my personal life would change. The members of my OH family are my closest friends now. Some of them even closer than family members. My relationship with God has become much stronger than it ever was before. I am just so thankful for all the changes that have come about. It was about so much more than the weight. It was about finding ME and getting back to being a person I respect and love again. I am so glad I made this journey and so glad I am on it with the amazing people in my life. Thanks to everyone who is making this one of the best things in my life. |
