You Guys have truly inspired me to be a better me!

Feb 24, 2010

I must say, OH is truly a place of peace and hope for me.  You have no idea the number of inspiring words I hear on a daily basis just for doing the things I so love to do.  I am currently seeking an opportunity to work with a group of bariatric physicians.  My psychologist will be working with some of the top surgeons here in Atlanta and she wants me to work with her to encourage others who are contemplating WLS.  Please pray with me that this opportunity is manifested? I am overjoyed to say the least.  I know that every last one of us has something we can encourage our fellow WLSers on.  I have done nothing more than anyone except kept my expectations regarding my results "real" and share them with you. 

I'm not like all the SUPER WLSers. I dont eat whey foods and high protein stuff.  I dont work out like crazy and some days I forget to take my vitamins. However, everyday I wake up with the best intentions to use my tool in the capacity in which it was created.  Overall health! 

 I knew going in I wanted a drastic result, what I didn't know going in was that it was going to take me some time before I would mentally be able to accept that I had transition into a whole different person. Like I've said before this is a journey...a very long journey and its no quick fix.  I have been at a stall for weeks now and I knew that if I wanted to break the stall I had to do something about it.  I have been in the gym for the past 2 mornings and I will take it one day at a time. 

I've chosen to push myself now, I have lost this weight pretty much just because the surgeon did his thing.  I have done nothing extra but I'm ready to go beyone the ordinary to the extraordinary.  I now understand that people are counting on me to be a success.  I'm counting on myself to be successful!

Just keep me covered with prayer that the purpose of this surgery will be fulfilled.  God brought me to it and He will indeed see me thru it!

Luv Yall!
