Posting !!

I think posting is another extremly great tool. As your surgery & your support group is a tool..so is posting. It has a way of keeping you on track. Just another thing to answer to. Which in my option is another great tool. If you were like me..you heard from some family members & friends that..this surgery was going to be like allll the other atempts at losing weight you've tried over the years. Well it's not going to be..because I'm using every tool in the shed. Have a great day. I am..I'm down 80lbs.today. And yes I posted it for ALL THE WORLD TO SEE.

That is fantastic 80 lbs.  Hope I can joing you in saying those same words.

I'm sure you will . I don't know about you but...I had been on sooo...many diets that didn't work miracles , that when I began this journey..my husband said.." Well here we go again". But he's a believer now. For once in my life..I'm truly satisfied with the amount of food I eat (or don't eat.) Whichever the case might be.

I guess I am very lucky my hubby has always been supportive of me, I can't even count how many times I have been on Weigh****chers.  It worked for about 2 or 3 months then..........you probably know how that goes.   When I decided to have this surgery,  I didn't say anything to anyone till the night before I went to my information meeting.  Then figured I better tell him why I was going to Omaha.  He just said if that's what you want I will support you. I did all the research and made the decision on what type of surgery I wanted and then told him.  He didn't even meet my surgeon till the day of the surgery.  He did go with me to one of my psych evaluations meeting.  The psychologist wanted to talk with anyone that lived in the household to see if they were supportive of what I wanted to do. When we go out to eat (which is way to often) he will choose a place that has salmon or some type of fish that I can eat. I need to go in or another fill so I start feeling restricition, but I am going to wait till January.  I want to get the hip surgery over and out of the way.  I know I won't be overeating while recuperation, it is too hard to get to the kitchen with a walker : ) Barb
