It has been almost 5 weeks since I was banded. I have had very good luck so far, besides a few foods that just do not agree with me. Tonight I was able to go to a restaurant and eat some grilled fish. I was very happy that the place had something I was able to eat. The only trouble I seem to have is having a full plate of food in front of me at one time. I have been thinking, maybe it would be a good idea to get a box when they first bring the food out, to ease temptations.
There are so many things in our life that we are so uncertain about. Jobs, marriages, finances, and listing to your heart instead of your mind. Of the many things that i am so uncertain about in life right now, I can honestly say that i am certain to change my life. Not for anyone but me, how often do we make choices that are strictly for us? NEVER! We try to please others first, i think it is just in our nature. I have learned that if you arn't happy yourself you cannot make others happy....am I right? Forget all the worries you have, yes it will be hard. Take a day just to do nothing but take care of yourself, this is not a selfish act. Love yourself, pamper yourself, and most of all let others love you.
