What happened is the past:
I can't change yesterday and this I accept.
I am perfectly okay the way I am: this is acceptable and I have the power to change my tomorrows. Strength for the future lies within ME.

Oh boy, J San, found myself doing this just yesterday. I want to be just as good as people much farther down the road. Maybe I seek perfection in a imperfect🌏 world!

I swear I thought I was a patient man until I had this surgery and wanted things to move much faster. I've gotten it "somewhat" under control but at times it's like waiting for Christmas morning in the middle of July.

Today is like Dolly Parton's hard candy Christmas for me, not even Christmas in July. Its a month today, well it was at 7AM, and I am having a Why Me day! Ellie 123 says, and rightly , I should call into my Bariatric hospital , let them know I was vomiti,g until 3AM, even the butternut squash Soup from early evening was coming up, as well as popsicles. This is not what I booked for, I swear I booked from the "smaller appetite and weight loss" pamphlet. 😟😪😷. Oh I have lost, 22 pounds since surgery, reminds me of a Bible section. Can't help it, I live in 5he northern outskirts of the Bible Belt. What does it profit a man to gain the whole world and lose his immortal soul?
My insurance paid my 💰 money, but today what did I gain?

Hang in there. Your body will adjust to it's new configuration and all will be good again (BETTER than good).

      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!!
