Guest guest Posted December 28, 2003 Report Share Posted December 28, 2003 Just a warm " hello " to all of you. New Years resolutions are coming soon and " for once in my lifetime " I don't have to list " giving up sugary crap & lose weight " as one of them!!!!!!!! I am so grateful !!!! I've had a wonderful holiday time with my relatives. My sister had bypass surgery 3 wks ago and is doing well. I have 2 morbidly obese nieces that are following in my past footsteps of health problems and poor esteem related to obesity. My heart goes out to them. One is only 17 yrs. old. It breaks my heart to see her suffer in this horrible " PRISON " of obesity. Maybe some year she'll have the surgery too. She's just too emotionally immature for me to recommend it at this point. I am so grateful to not have gained weight over the holidays. Also, to NOT have had " an umbilical cord " attached to the " FOOD table " at the get-togethers that I've attended during this time. I've been able to socialize instead of bingeing on the food. Pre bypass surgery I'd feel embarrassed at eating so much in front of others yet be unable to control myself. Thankfully, now, my body won't let me consume mass quantities of food all at once. It's a wonderful tool to have a smaller stomach! Hugs to you all, Suzanne from San Diego Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
