6 Months since surgery
Oct 08, 2009
I am sitting here thinking of many of the firsts I have had since surgery.... The first thing is I am able to walk around the block and not be winded. I can bend down an tie my shoes...I can ride my stationary bike... I am off insulin.... I am off my BP and heart medication and CPAP machine... The steering wheel doesn't touch my belly anymore.... My knees do not hurt as much...
People react differently to me... I am not just fat Chris anylonger.... I really feel that I can accomplish this goal of weight loss and be sucessful at it... I love exercise...I have learned to love me unconditionally...I love walking by a mirror and saying to myself "Who is that" and realize that it is me.....
I have so much to be thankful for.. My family doctor who supports me and has given me the encouragement that I needed to get this done. To my surgeon for giving me a second chance at life... to my family who have cheered me on... to my friends who have not given up on me and encourage me to move and get out there and enjoy life...
I am just so blessed t have my RNY... I look forward to more firsts.... to reaching my goal and keeping it off.... I am grateful to have lost the weight that I have and look forward to the NEW me......
