What Are Your Aspirations Once At Goal?



Recommended Posts

For example, I want to:

Run a marathon

Walk on the beach shirtless and feel good about it ( Hawaii trip next may)

Climb mount Rainer ( a local peak here in Washington)

Hike the PCT from California to Canada ( already have done shorter stints in Washington earlier in life)

My future aspiration was actually a bit large scale, meaning finding a new company to work for. Knowing the weight prejudice, I was feeling self concious about interviewing. However with recent pay cuts, etc. it looks like I'm going to have to start seaching now, and I'm only a month out and not too much noticable weight loss as yet.

But I'd like to get into Water sports (kayaking, jet skiing, etc.) and return to dancing. :)

I would like to be able to tuck a shirt into pants or a skirt and not see rolls! Be in a crowd and not feel self conscious. Eat in public and not feel like people are staring at me. And to be able to wear a sleeveless shirt!

I really just want to be a healthy Mom and set a good example for my two kids. I am happy to have this done befoer they start school so they won't have "the fat mom" out of their classmates. I look forward to having the energy to participate in all of their activities.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
