Still Moving on Down!
May 25, 2011
Well havent posted in a while have had a lot of things on my mind this new life change presents so many oppurtunities that i just don't know what to do. I guess that's a good thing no complaints here. I know im ready to go swimming, they say i have to wait 4 to 6 weeks post-op to swim but my wounds are healed and i'm wondering is there another reason that they say not to? I'm down 53 lbs and i know if i can just get in that water i can keep it moving. It's hard for me to do much walking with my bad leg and that pool takes the pressure off the knee and still can get a quality workout. I can swim like a fish...
I know I need to slow my roll and let my body heal its only another week but its hot here in Arizona i think i have the right to go swim and cool off(justification). Well anyway i really like to take this time and thank God for priviledging me with this second oppurtunity at life..well with my past its been more than a second chance but with the wls I feel so optimistic about my future. It seems like there is no mountain that I can't climb now, when i see the small portions of food that i eat and think of all the wrong things i use to put into my body it is amazing brings tears to my eyes thinking about how i was killing myself. This journey is a tough one but one that I would take over again and again and again. So if your fighting with your insurance company and going through all the bull keep foghting its truly worth it my life has changed dramatically in a very short time and i know that without God and this wls i would still be somewhere miserable taking a handful of pills injecting myself 3 to 4 times a day just to live and that ain't living believe me.
