Anyone else feel obsessed with WLS?

I think it's cause you have to keep up with so much your food Protein Vitamins exercise and Drs visits your blood work this is a lot to deal with so I think it will just take a little while to get adjusted to all the changes after all its not just surgery it is a lifestyle change and changes take time Remember all good things are worth WAITING for and that's a better HEALTHIER LIFE

I've started to "try" and not talk about it as much. Very hard to do!

No I found myself telling a complete stranger at Water aerobics!!! I was appaled at myself afterwards!! It was like why the hell dud I just tell a complete stranger that!! So weird.

I know what you mean. Everytime I say something to a complete stranger... I think to myself ... what the hell. The lady at SAMS was handing out samples and instead of saying no thank you ... I said... I have had gastric bypass and I really cant... wth... like she cares!!!

We ran through Wendy's the other night to pick up dinner after soccer practice. I ordered a grilled chicken sandwich and baked potato (was going to take the bun off), got around to the window and the told me they were out of baked potatoes, I could have salad or fries. I'm 6 weeks post-op, I can't have salad for 2 more weeks and I'm just not gonna have fries. Rather then say cancel my order I went in to a big gastric bypass speech.....I am such an idiot

I know my kids are tired of hearing me talk about it but I'm trying to get all the info I can so that I am as prepared for the life changes I am making. What they do not realize fully is that they are making the changes also!!!! So I am not just wanting this surgery for myself to become healthier but all of us. Does that make sense, or am I just pushing this onto the kids unnecessarily?

No, my family is also going to make the change with me!!

I agree it's a life change and I think we are excited and ready to do this. My husband will have to make changes as well and he's totally cool with it. Never says honey can we talk about something else! Lol I'm going to try to tone it down but no promises!! Lol
