Living for me
Mar 25, 2010
This has been quite and journey.I could have never imagine that I would be size 22/24 and about to be divorce. I'm not complaining, just a bit caught in my memories. 2009 was the best and the worst for me, but I thank God for helping me overcome all of my trails and yes there were many.
Losing all this weight has truly transformed me, I have found that person inside of me, that I never knew and now love.
For anyone going threw this process, post-opt and your going threw a divorce. Don't blame yourself, it was not the surgery that changed the relationship..... the relationship was already in trouble. WLS, just gave you the confidence to see things as they are and too now have the courage to leave.
Also, take things sloooooooooooow; as to starting a new relationship. Your feelings have a way of changing quickly and you won't have time for BS.
My confidence level is so high right now that I don't have time for someone else's insecurities. It's so funny how when we lose weight others now have a negative image of themselves. WOW it took me losing a whole a person for you to see that you now have body issues. But when I was 414 pds. you were on top and never thought the tables would turn.
Oh well, to bad so sad.
I am still in the fight for my life. Getting back to the gym and eating properly is still a struggle.
But WLS has giving me the tools to fight the good fight. My goal is still 180 pds. I'm 284 pds now but I'm giving myself until Dec to get to 200 pds. I will say, I'm sorry that I never stuck with my surgeons plans; as to my weight lose process. I know I would be further along if I stuck with his instruction. The good thing is that, it's not until the fight lady sings, and that heffa ain't singing in my life.
For those of you just starting this process. Yes it is a journey and yes you will have to put in alot of work on your own, but the risk and payoff is soooooooooooooo worth it.
Living my life for me!!!
