Guest guest Posted April 30, 2001 Report Share Posted April 30, 2001 Hi everyone! I don't post often, but I do read here voraciously! It is so helpful to have the experiences of others going through or have gone through the process! It gives me courage to carry on. I have felt somewhat like I'm on a runaway train lately.Back in January when I decided to look further into surgery, I decided to get my act together and watched what I ate and was deligent about getting to the Y for water aerobics. In two months i lost 20 lbs! I did give up diet soda and was drinking water til I was floating. But since then, as I have gotten closer to my consult date, I have been letting go. Now I'm eating all the Berger King food I can get. What is the funny thing is that I've always hated Berger King food! Give me that Whopper and King size it no less! Now, my consult is this thursday with Dr. Herron at Mt. Sinai. I am both excited yet dreading it. I know that this surgery is the best option for me, but I don't really want to have surgery. I have been doing my research and talking with people. I have my support group in place. I'm just plain scared. Today I did something I haven't done in over 5 years. I went on a binge. I get so afraid that I will do this post op. I dont want to be one of those people who is non compliant. I want to be a success and make the necessary changes I need to improve my health, my life and my situation. I'm babbling...anyway, thanks all for the openness you have to share the good, the bad and the ugly. Recently someone from my church said he found it remarkable that people would be so open about something like this.
