19 Month Post-Op Happy Holiday New Year Roll Call
Hiya Sweety, long time no chat. I've been pretty much out of the loop, been rolling around OH trying to catch up on what's going on with everybody.
As for myself, doing okay... Trying to stay busy and yet not overdo it. For a rather long and rambling review of my current PS status, you can check out what I just posted on the PS board: http://www.obesityhelp.com/forums/plasticsurgery/postdetail/38642.html?vc=0
Other than that, just keeping on keeping on. I'll be glad to have the holidays behind us. Between PS, family life, etc., I either don't eat at all or eat crap... My excuse is that I've got so much going on, I hurt, and I skip meals, therefore, I'm allowed to eat crap when I want to right now...lol Great plan, eh?
My plans for the holidays are to get through them in once piece. After that, my goal/challenge is to get back to a normal way of life (eating, exercise when I'm cleared to, home and schedule). My challenge is I thinking I'm gonna lose it before I get there...
I'm doing good - trying to lose 20lbs by March before my PS.
The new year is crazy and I have so many plans and have my calendar booked til March!
I get to go home to IL this weekend and see my family - it will be alot of fun. I am also probably breaking up with my boyfriend - which sucks, but you gotta do what you gotta do.
Happy Holiday, Maysters,
I am happy, both daughters are home for the week. I have my shopping and wrapping done, and my mom will be joining us from the nursing home for Christmas day. Being tempted a little by holiday treats, argh. Still have many moments of sadness and mourning for my father.
As for the New Year, I gave up resolutions many years ago. Just the word "resolution" had a negative connotation to me. Instead, I focus on "aspirations". It just works better for me. In the last day or two, I've realized that I have *achieved* my life long aspiration of being physically normal. It was the one goal that had eluded me my entire life. Now, at 51, I have to discover my new focus. The normal stuff is still there, grow a healthy relationship with my husband, try to teach by example to my daughters on how to live a happy, fulfilling life, maintain the weight loss and continue the healthy exercise and eating regime. I think it's going to take some deep soul searching to chart the next step of my life.
