It has been a battle, but I now know that now is the time. Not tomorrow, or next week, but now. I am researching alternatives and would like some insight to what you guys experienced. |
Well for myself I was losing very nicely then we had a bunch of deaths in the family, I had a granddaughter that died at 30 min old, then my father died and then one of my sisters died and the next month to the day my other sister tried to kill herself.
After all that I was back to eating all the junk food I could eat, chocolate, chips ect,. And what I did was graze all day long. I was back to having food by my chair in the living room and before I would think the whole bag would be gone. I had a 70lbs gain after that and was scared to death that I had ruined the surgery, So I got checked out and found that I had not ruined anything everything was as it should be. And I guess you could say that was the turning point for me. It took me a few months to get comfortable with a healthy eating plan my body could tolerate and went on from there.
I guess the biggest thing is you have to be very careful and not let the pit falls in life put you back in the dark places that made you get to the size you are.
But for myself that was the struggle and through all of that I did come to realize I thought surgery would be the easy way out, Even though I knew if I didnt get it I would die, way before my time.
I hope this helps some
