random thoughts...

Mar 03, 2009

For the last couple of days, I have been thinking about how and when I am going to tell my son and daughter as well as my brothers and sisters about my decision to have WLS.  These are all people that have known me my whole life.  They have stood by me and cheered me on with every flippin diet I have ever tried and eventually failed...they have watched me sit on the sidelines, watched me squeeze onto a ride at Sea World.  These are the people that love me unconditionally...why is it so hard to tell them what I am about to do? 
I feel very sure of my decision about the WLS and I am 99 percent sure that the DS is the surgery type that I want...I just know that I have spent my entire life trapped in this huge body.  I want to fell comfortable in my own skin.  I want the 2nd part of my life to be at the weight that I was intended to be at.  My weight is making me feel trapped and alone.
