The Easy Way?

We've all heard of those who feel WLS is the " easy way

to wieght loss " . I'm not offended by this (unless, of

course, it came from my mother - that's just plain

mean). Whether it was the " easy way " or not makes no

difference whatsoever. I'm thinner, happy and a full

participant in life. Easy or hard, I would have taken

any way available to achieve this kind of life. Did I

take the easy way? I took the only way that worked

for me and if someone considers it easy, then I say, I

must be darn smart to have found an easy way to turn

my life around.

Boy, I never thought about that. There are definately people out there who

will never change their minds about WLS being the easy way out. When you

get right down to it, there is absolutely nothing wrong with doing it the

easy way.

I don't think of WLS as the easy way, but I do think of it as a way to make

it possible to lose weight. The difference between dieting and surgery, at

least for me, is that before WLS, I would do everything right to lose

weight. Sometimes I lost weight, sometimes not. But I could not keep it

off.

Now, with WLS, if I do everything I am supposed to do, I not only lose

weight, but I feel better and I can now keep it off. So really, WLS makes

it possible, not easy. But even if it were easy, it would be okay. Easy is

not lazy and bad.

I wonder if the people who say WLS is the " easy way " ever doanything the easy

way. Do they have dishwashers? Do they do their laundry on a rock beside the

river? Would they rather have a mop or scrub floors on hands and knees? Do they

vacuum? LOL!

Sometimes the easy way is the better way -- modern technology being our friend,

sometimes.

I'm in the SCA, where we recreate medieval times -- to a point. We camp in

tents, not out in the open, and we use lanterns in lieu of hand-dipped candles,

in many of our encampments. We say, in our defense, that if our medieval

ancestors COULD have done things easier, they WOULD have! LOL!
