I'm going through them right now!!!

I have felt calm and relaxed about this whole thing up until now. Before I felt like God was leading me in this direction and now I'm confused.

God didn't make us with 85% less stomach... Should I be doing this!?!?

This is a huge decision to be making... There's no going back.

It's scary and I'm right there with you on this one!

God didn't make us with 85% less stomach, but he also didn't make us to give into temptation and get ourselves to where we are today. The idea is to use those he has put in our path with the talent and ability to perform a procedure that will get us back to where God wants us. Healthy and able to avoid the temptation the devil puts in front of us so we don't abuse the beautiful body and life God was loving enough to give us in the first place. Don't give in to doubt! God put you here at this time for a reason. I feel that I'm here right now because this is where God needed me to be so I could benefit from the procedure the has helped the medical profession perfect. Years ago they would have taken my stomach, or I would have been wearing a mu-mu waiting to die from a coronary or a stroke. Now with this procedure, I get to keep my stomach, lose weight, be healthy and live a long, happy life.

Good luck!!!

You're familiar with what this surgery is, right Tiffany? They do take your stomach. 85% of it, anyway.

You keep your stomach with the bypass. (or band)

Yes! I go thru this thought process almost everyday too... It's a big deal and it's very drastic, but I keep on with it - like some one said once, when you have faith, even though your scared... you just do it scared!! And trust that all will be fine. I know it all won't be wonderful after surgery- there surely will be things I don't like afterward, but I am getting Diabetes now, I don't like that either and I want to be healthy and I have to keep reminding my self of the reasons i'm doing this. But you are not alone for sure. In the end, I just know it's gonna be great for the overall health of us and we are doing the right thing... Thanks for sharing your thoughts
