Re: Anybody feel like this?

[Guest guest]

Hey Cecilia

Well at least from me , i was like that too.

I was feeling that feeling that was i crazy or an i all OK with what i was about to do.

But as the date came closer for me i was fine . I is a big time to think and reflect on all

the changes that will take place in your life, but they are all good ones. This is hard work, but something well worth it. We did not get here just over night. It is a long road and then a road of re-learning everything that you are so use to. Know that i have had my surgery it is so funny,

i know that i am NOT hungry but when i see food i feel that i need to stuff my face. It is only a MENTAL thing, i have to teach my body and mind to be very display and only take what i need and NO MORE. I am doing fine and working at it every day. I am only two week out post-op. It will be fine. Just keep up the weight loss and you will have the surgery be for you know it.

Cecilia,

I went though a morning period. I mean, food was my best friend for my

whole life! It always made me feel better, just like drugs and

alcohol. Its a end to something we are used to and love even if it is

killing us. You will feel fine and it will pass. One day at a tine

girlfriend *wink*

I know I should not say this but,,,, being two years and 8 months out

there really is nothing I can not eat at this time except Milk, so its

not like you will NEVER be able to nibble on your favoret foods again

you will just have to learn your limits and do it in moderation.Ok so

I might be a bad Gastic by-pass patients!! Heck Im anything but

perfect but I have maintained a 170 pound weight loss.

Oh wait, it isn't until the 24, I got the " I can't eat

this no more blues " a little closer to surgery time.

Ok, then maybe Miriam has a point. Maybe it's more

something like " i should have been able to do this on

my own. i shouldn't need this surgery " I had them

blues shortly after getting a date. I get lotsa

blues, huh? Right now even I got em. They're the

" damn i hate that I can't eat dat blues " LOL

I am alot better since I heard from you guys. That is what is awsome

about this group. I felt different and alone until you guys stated

that it is what you went through also. I will not regain the weight

before surgery as a matter of fact I want to lose 5 more before then

so surgery will be easier.Hwat a crazy eciting, scary journey we are

on!
