This I Know for Sure . . .

[SKCUNNINGHAM 298]

I picked up an issue of Oprah’s magazine in my doctor’s office, and saw the article on the inside back page, titled “This I know for Sure”. The title captured my attention more than the content – because it rang true for me. In life there are things we know and believe to our very core – items which we are sure of in every Fiber of our being.

Here are some of my items that I know for sure . . .

• VSG was the right decision for me to make positive change in my life
• I will never go back to the way I was pre-VSG. This is a forever commitment I have made.
• I will not hold perfection up as a goal for myself – I will strive for making sane, healthy choices.
• Nothing that I have lost, left behind or can no longer indulge in is important to me in the grand scheme of things.
• There is nothing in my cabinets or fridge I need to fill my life with. I will fill my life with LIFE.

That's awesome!!! This I know for sure:

• I love myself, this is why I'm having WLS
  
• I love my life, this is the reason I want to improve it and not be plagued w/ obesity related diseases.
• I owe it to myself and loved ones to be my BEST ME!!!
  
• I'm excited about my future and the help I will have by using this tool to reach a healthy weight
• Life is too short to pass up an opportunity to improve it and enjoy it more
• Though I am a little anxious about how I will look after weight loss, I know that I will be the same lively, lovely person with a BIG personality.. then, I just won't have the BIG body to match!!!

Great post! I know VSG was the right choice for me. Those 3 weeks of liquids was tough and even this week with mushies is not easy. Mainly I eat so slow cause I am afraid of overdoing it. Still having a lot of left side lower abdominal pain, etc. But trying to walk & sip as much as I can. Back at work this week which has hurt my Fluid consumption which has in turn hurt the scale. But, I know this was a good decision. My blood pressure and blood sugar are already completely normal without meds.
