DISCIPLINE- the difference between what you want and what you want right now.

I think of that often when making food choices or when I have head hunger.

I like the one below. I recently read it in an essay concerning loss (Sheryl Sandberg's):

"Option A is not available. So let's just kick the shit out of option B."

"Comparison is the thief of joy"

Too often we compare our weight to others, that should be avoided. Everyone is different, we all lose at a different pace and have different lifestyles. We should Celebrate our losses and try to enjoy this journey.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
