What I found out about myself...

Jan 08, 2014

Well, this post should serve as a huge source of inspiration to others, if nothing else.  After nine years and never having had an endoscopy post roux-n-y, I have found out that the ring of scar tissue that is supposed to form at my stoma did not.  Soooooo, my 151 pound weight loss was NOT due to my "tool," it was matter of my MIND SET.  My surgeon did such fine work, that my scar tissue (at my stoma) that promotes restriction did not form.  I had my mind so convinced that I did it myself.....despite the procedure and the outcome---I did this myself.  I had hunger, I fought through it.  I DID THIS WITHOUT THE ANATOMICAL FUNCTION OF MY STOMA INTACT.  I LOST 151 POUNDS IN A YEAR.  Guess what ?  I am going to do it----Again, with a repair to my stoma, I am going to do it again.  I am stronger than I think, I am much more capable than I think.  Yes I am, and YES I CAN!
