    coodaben got a reaction from _Kate_ in 4 days post op and confused   
    At Thanksgiving 1 week out 2 dinners. Looked at the way people were eating and I reminded myself...I once ate like that. The smell of the food made me nauseous. Self talk and remembering where you came from and the effort required will help you refuse cravings. I test myself everyday looking at foods once ate and how unhealthy they were. I am now 20lbs lighter and have no regrets.

    What it's are nothing else but a pretext for failure. Don't set yourself up. Believe in what will be. I had all those emotions as well. I'm only three days out, but I know that I need to stick to the plan, follow the instructions, these things are tried and true. Believe in your self and continue to see "what will be."

    You don't need a snappy comeback, your weight loss is all you need. One thing you don't need is critical people who don't understand anything we have gone through. You don't need to impress anyone. It's not about them. This is all about you, your weight issues, your choice to improve. Just go and if anyone says any thing, tell them the truth. "I don't need all the fats and carbs...so enjoy."

    coodaben got a reaction from Caribear in Did it   
    3 days out. When I woke up and the Dr. told me that the surgery took 2 hrs longer because of adhesions and that my liver had been nicked,I was questioning why I did this. 3 days in ICU wasn't very pleasant. I am home now and I am much better. A rough start to be sure, but the future looks promising. (If only the gas would go away)

    coodaben got a reaction from Sherelle28441 in So let it begin   
    My surgery is tomorrow morning. After all the emotions ranging from fear to confidence and all points between, I am at the fail safe point. When I leave the house this morning I leave familiar foods and habits . When I return, " behold..all things are new." I will grieve the loss..for a time..but begin to Celebrate the gain for a lifetime. Pray for me.
