A lot of distractions going on around me



Recommended Posts

There have been many distractions lately popping up. I feel like I am being tested. My surgery is next week and for the past few days there has been distractions that I wish not to be around. My pre op diet is going well I am down 21 pounds so I feel solid with that but this extra stuff right before surgery I wished it could have missed me. I know God has a plan for me & I know he wants me healthy. I know he wont give us more than we can handle. I got to stay strong & lean on him. Also, you know how you feel regret about a situation when you may have not been your best.Well I got some of that going on too. Again out of the blue distractions. Thats how they come. So, I guess I am very sensitive about going through it now being that my surgery is right around the corner and I rather just have that on my mind only... So, I will just continue reading Gods word & allow his word to build me up & my strength... Thanks for reading

Joy cometh in the morning! Try to put your "blockers" on until next week. This will be life changing. You have come this far, so it's inevitable that you will continue to reach your goal. I have mine next week also. Tuesday. What day is yours?

I just realized that I must have clicked on the wrong section earlier. But it must have been for good reason : ) I am getting the sleeve so I am always in that forum. I'm having quite a bit of head hunger at the moment but it's not as bad as it was the first 4 days. I felt weak and emotionally drained. I'm just now starting to feel like myself. Yes... we are almost there!!!!! Are you nervous? Excited?

I do the same thing. I read whats in my timeline and forget that its the sleeve. No problem because even though my procedure is different from yours its always a great thing to be inspired by what others post. I appreciate that! I was weak in the first 3 days of my pre op but it has gotten better. Yes! I am so nervous. I will finish washing clothes & my bed linen today. I dont want any laundry pile up lol Wow just a few days more

This surgery is such a blessing from God, of course the enemy is going to try to block it. I hope all went well. Stay strong. May he favor of the lord surround you as a shield.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      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!!
