Date scheduled
I got my surgery date today--Dec 1 2005--I am deep in process--I am not afraid of the surgery or recovery--I find I am holding back hopeful feelings because I have lost weight so many times before and just gained it all back plus some. I am trying to intergrate that it IS different now, that I am taking a drastic FIRST step to a life long change. I have numerous resources now, my physician, dietician,of course my dear family, and this web site with all the others who have gone before and lead the way. I am going to keep that in the front of my mind when the negativity pushes forward.
Good luck with your surgery first off and I can relate with the feelings. I was just talking to someone about it lastnight asking how do you take 10 years of conditioned behavior, etc and change them so quickly. Can it really be done? I mean I know I really want it and feel like this is the answer for me, but can it be true? Just doesn't feel real yet.
