Negativity

Feb 17, 2009

It can be so easy to succumb to negative thoughts. I dreaded this preop liquid diet from the moment that I found out about it. Intellectually, I know why it is important. I know that I am making a life-long change in diet that must start immediately and I need to make sure that I am as healthy as possible before the surgery. But that didn't stop me from cheating here and there and convincing myself that if I could just get through surgery that things would be fine. That kind of thinking got me to 300 pounds once and it will do it again if I don't keep myself in check. So, I will have a new attitude about this from now on. I vow to stay positive and to honest with myself from now on. Whew!

Oh, and to my friend that helped me come to this little epiphany: Thank you.
