The First Day of my New Life!!!!



Recommended Posts

Greetings,

This Friday will begin my new life. These last three weeks seem to be an Atkins blur. I cant believe how strict I have been. I wish that I had confidance that I could stay on Atkins and loose 120 pounds. But truthfully I would be kidding myself. The band is the help that I need and deserve after years of failure. I am ready for the assistance. The house is stocked with Soup and pops and hard candy. My parents although divorced have flown in for support. YIKES

LOL.

Thank you all for being so supportive and full of the information that I needed. I look forward to talking to you

as a full fledged bandster.

Thanks everyone, I am very excited and cant wait to get back and recoup.

My Dr. is Grossbard. He has been banded himself, which is nice, he can relate.

Rachel, you've been gearing up for this day for a long time! You have a wonderful life waiting for you...happier, healthier. Sending prayers for a non-eventful surgery and rapid recovery. Please let us know how you're doing when you feel up to it.

P. S. Do you think there might be a "rekindling of the flame" between your Mom and Dad? That's really sweet that they put their differences aside for you!

Just curious, do you live in the Z-hills area? I noticed that you said Grossbard is doing your surgery. Is that going to be at the D.C. hospital? I live in D.C. and have been to one of his seminars.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
