Not a Happy Camper!
My DD gave me this photo today
It was from the month after I retired in April of 2008. I remember how bad I felt. Physically and mentally I do believe that this is the picture of my heaviest weight. We had to come home from my vacation because my back was so painful that I ended up in the ER for pain meds. Just look at the expression on my face. You can just see the pain then compare it to my avatar and you can see the pride. LOL
Life change for me in the blink of an eye when I personally made the choice to do the unconventional and seek out Medical Weight loss surgery. I knew I had to do something or die!
I cry when I looked at this picture. In my mind I never realized how big I was esthetically or how close I was to dropping out of life!
"When we stop running away from the situation that is scary - that is the moment we discover how strong we really are. So, acknowledge your strength...rejoice in it...and start breathing in life, as the beautiful, strong soul (being) that you truly are." - Rachna Sirtaj.......Love & Peace
