Guest guest Posted October 19, 2002 Report Share Posted October 19, 2002 Welcome -- I had my surgery about six months after you did, and I'm in somewhat the same place, though I haven't had the plastics consult yet. I'm at my goal, though, and now sitting here panicking about all the other times I've lost weight, only to have it sneak up on me again. I DON'T want this to happen this time. However, this " new body " thing is such a trip, isn't it? I really sometimes feel like I've borrowed someone else's body temporarily (a la the alien in the first Men in Black movie, who took over that farmer's body...don't know if you saw that, but I thought it was a brilliant metaphor for how I feel some days). Are you still at the stage where people you've known for years walk past you in the street because they don't recognize you? Bizarre. Anyway, just wanted to welcome you here... Take care, -- <><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><> RNY September 19, 2001 Dr. Freeman, Ottawa General Hospital BMI then: 43.5 BMI now: 23.2 -145 lbs <><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
