glad to be feeling better

May 02, 2009

I have to say that my surgery was a big success. Dr. Katkhouda is the best! I have not had anything to complain about my surgery. The day of surgery I was so nervous I didn't know if I wanted to cry, laugh, or be exited. My family was very supportive they were there for me the whole way. I just knew that after that day my life would be different. I was at USC Hospital for 2 d ays and it was nice, I had a really nice nurse named Rita she was so nice to me. I was off of work for two weeks and I was just trying to adjust the first couple of days that I could only sip on water and like two capsules of water that was the crazy part of it. I have found that really hard to deal with to eat less, it's a mental thing because before I would eat until I was full and just eat because I was craving something now I am more careful with the cravings because on top of that I cannot even have them....lol. I need a lot of help support in that area I want to go back to my old habits but I know I can't and I don't want too. So so far Ive lost 20lbs and it's been a month I feel better physically and working on the emotional part of it. I have to stay focused and that is hard to deal with because all around me there is always unhealthy foods. I just have to work on me emotionally and Ive already started. A lot of people tell me that when I start to loose the weight I will be more motivated and happy but for now Im hanging strong. I thank God because without Him I could not do this and my hubby for being there for me and my awesome family for all there support. Hope my next blog will be a better one. IF you could give me advice on how to deal with cravings and emotional attatchment to food i need all the help I can. I thought  i was ready emotionally until now....but I will make it. I know I will.
