Right around the corner

Well, I came across this awesome app just in time! I will be having my surgery on Monday! I am so nervous , but yet so excited to start this journey. It is amazing to read all these post and it sure has helped me as I started feeling , well as some would say a little fish in a big sea. And at some points I found my self being looked at like a was crazy. I have had a lot thrown at me with my decision to take this life long journey, such as are you sure this is a good idea, well good thing some can take the easy way out... But I have also received some of the best support along the way already! But for many of you already know it is not an easy way. It's a whole new way of eating. Training yourself all over again. You have to work everyday. For me I had to change my life months in advance from my surgery date.. I have to admit it wasn't all that hard due to the fact that I am not a chip eater, soda drinker, or candy addict. But it's still hard not to finish up my sons chicken patty, or whatever else he has on that tray. But I did it, and to anyone who might be reading this you can do it too. We all might be hard on ourselves hoping this all can be fixed over night, but it can't it is a process like everything else in our life. But if you are determined and you have support anything is possible.

To anyone who actually read this I hope it helps because we are not alone, apps like this help everyone realize they aren't crazy! I'm not the only one struggling. For me the hardest part was making my mind up on if it was time to start a new chapter, and I am not very glad I did. I met wonderful people and hopefully I can meet more amazing people on this app.

So to anyone who just read this whole post about nothing , I thank you . Sometimes you just need to get things out. I am excited to start my transformation !
