I am not normally one to post anything personal about myself on fb but this time i am making an choice this time to open up. It's taken me a long time to make the decision but after many failed attempts at losing weight and my medical health needed more and more medications, i have decided to get the surgical weight loss surgery The Sleeve. While I may not have a lot of support on this, its something that i need to do. It is no longer as simple as eating less or exercising. I never feel satisfied and always am hungry no matter what i do. Will it be tough and a long road? Probably. Do i know that i will only be able to eat in ounces and milliliters? Yup. The doctor has told me that the surgery I am going to have will stop 80% of the always hungry feeling. I will also be more motivated to get up and keep the weight loss going. I won't want to eat a lot. Will there be some not nice results after for a bit, sure, but that's something i know going into it and know it is part of the process. Mind you pregnancy and giving birth wasn't a walk in the park either and that's some of the most difficult and not friendly body functions going on before and after and I still was able to get through it. Many of my friends have had this surgery with no issues or limited ones. Most say it was worth it. I have looked at the forums and still do and even after hearing some horror stories about it, i am still wanting this change. It will take me off a lot of my medications and I will be able to stay confident that i will be here and healthy for my daughter. I am tired of being how i am and need to make this change. I understand if some of you do not support this, then again i am not asking you to. I will keep updates on here esp closer to the surgery. PLEASE, if you are going to criticize or trying and make mean comments or convince me not to do this, then please do not comment. Your comments if left WILL be deleted. Again, not asking for support, just keeping my friends and "family" in touch with what is happening in my life.
