    Self Doubt: I need a pep talk!

    Steph is right, photo help, I read a great book by Ann Lamott, she reminds us that we have two type of voices in our head, one that tell us how successful, wonderful , beautiful, and committed we are.. The other voice, well it is the voice that put us down, reminds us of our failures and want to shame us... Well Lamott just has a trick, identify the particular thought , says, remember last time, u were at this weight, u fail... Pretend it is a little mouse that say it, pick it up by the tail in your mind and put it in a Manson jar, and you keep doing that till those negative voices are. All put away in a sealed Manson jar... It works, i did it , I keep doing it, and soon u start to recognize that negative voice or thought and u can laugh it away....

    Hey tracie, I still have some abdominal cramping, but the shoulder pain is gone, I have not needed pain meds for the last two days, so It is bearable..... I went for my first longer walk about 2 miles, and today I am going to try the treadmil at the gym..... If I maybe a little crude, I took gas aid strip on a regular basis, as well I took a dose of miralax, both did wonder for my pain level and cramping, you might like ot try ... let me know, be well, R

    Hey tracie, so how did it go... My surgery was on the 13th as well... All went well, nurses, doctor and staff were so supportive , professional and kind. In the us , I was not eligible for insurance so I pay privately as well. I started my first visit in mid may... And a month later I had my surgery.. Even if I was eligible with my insurance I would have had to wait 6 months to be approved... Anyway hope All is well , Ron
  7. the day after and I am doing reasonably fine, some abdominal discomfort, I was afraid I will be angry but could not eat , well I am not hungry and well I can't eat anyway.. :)
