Just wondering......

Ok i am sooooo bored here in nyc it has been raining all day. I was just wondering....if i could change anything in my life right now, or do anything different with my life , what would it be? I really dont know. I am loosing weight and feeling good about myself and it just makes me think about life and what i really want out of it. I have a wonderful family and career a roof over my head but what is missing? Do any of you feel this way now that you are getting healthy and feeling good? I feel like there is something i am missing.....Just wondering.. LisaMarie

Hi, No--I don't feel that anything is missing. What I do feel is a sense of expectancy--I am trying to be patient --trying to wait and see just how much my life is going to change--not only because I am getting healthier--but because I am changing mentally, physically and spiritually. The people around me will have to deal with a new and different me--I hope that I remain Humble and loving and caring--but I know that there will be changes too. In me , and In those around me. Life is never boring --and I think that the good Lord will show me everything that I need and He will help me be who I should be--for myself and for others. Be Blessed and be expectant--life is going to be brand NEW for all of us! Marian S.C. 242.4/188.2/goal ??125-130??

Great answer!

LisaMarie, WOW you are sure making me think here. You know the only thing I wish I would have done is having this surgery sooner, even though I would have not been ready and I know it happened when it should have but WOW I am 40 this year and to think if I would have done this earlier I might have been able to do so much more. We just don't know, I know we always say what if, or should have but things do happen the way they are meant to. I know I want to be out more and try new things now that I have some weight off. This summer (if we can afford it since the house ) I would love to try a bunch of new sport and activities.. Just have fun with it hun, I think what some of us feel is our loss of food as a coping thing. I know I had some depression right after surgery and it lasted for a bit. Maybe that might be some of what you are feeling? If it is, it is normal. ~hugs~ Well take care Debra P

Maybe that is what is going in....Being a psychiatric nurse i see problems in everyone else but when it comes to me i can never put my finger on it. Maybe i am mourning the loss of my favorite foods{although pizza is my favorite } and i can still enjoy a half a slice every now and then lol...I just cant put my finger on it right now but i will.......eventually. Thanks for responding Debra.....I am keeping my fingers crossed for you guys on that house!!! LisaMarie

LisaMarie, Hun we are changing so much every day and it is happening rather quickly so I think we also need time to accept these things and it can get overwhelming at times (well it can for me) though since being able to eat like "normal" just smaller qtys life does seem so much better. I guess it also it being scared that this tool can be missused, I know for me I worry about that every day and maybe that is a good thing to help me stay on track! Just keep talking here and you will come to see what it really is. ~Hugs~ Take care Debra P
