Just an update
Jul 10, 2010
I love reading but don't like typing, but I thought I would let anyone who reads this that I am very very glad that I have had the this surgery. Just being able to walk without being out of breath is so MAJOR! Didn't realize I was struggling until can actually breath.I can:
Tie my shoes strings in the middle and no longer on the side
I can squat or stoop down
I had to bring my car seat closer to the steering wheel
I can climb the stair w/o feeling death (smile),
I walked nearly 5 miles and felt I could do more but it was HOT
.....I'm sure there is more to list, but these are just a few noticeable I can's
The only thing that I can't seem to do is have my monthly cycle. I had one a month after surgery and haven't had one since. My doctor prescribed me something to help bring it on, however that hasn't worked with the two doses I have had. I'm getting kinda nervous but well see what's next .
One of my major concerns is my relationship with my sister. She is my best friend or at least I think she is/??? Besides my son, I believed her to be my biggest supporter. I knew she had her doubts, but .........She was my Angel. She was at every support group meeting taking in all info that she could. She was right there during surgery. She took days off from work to just be there with me and she let me stay at her home until I felt better, but since I came home from her house, she has not asked how I feel, how the weight loss is going, what's going on or nothing. She has never complimented me. She is always concerned about what I eat and jumps on anything that may be a negative towards the surgery. It's like she is looking for me to fail and she can be there to help console me. Was I that week of a person before the surgery? I don't feel like I've changed that much. Yes, I am feeling more confident. And why should I not feel better about my self and change up on my style a little bit. I'm not even at my goal and it feels good to wear a summer dress and not feel uncomfortable. I just hate the thought that my sister my have issues with my weight loss.
With all that said, I am making some changes for me and my son and look forward to what the future has to bring to us. I am stepping out on Faith. This is a biggie for me because I never want anyone to be upset with me or judge me. I never wanted to make a move w/o someone else's opinion. I'm a responsible adult and can make sound decisions. Let me follow my heart and my own sound judgment. But here I go.....................I tell u later. Thanks for listening.
God Bless
