Newbie looking for Oct sleevers!

[chellede 352]

Okay you awesome Oct. Sleevers.

I kind of skimmed this thread. Been so busy ! Today was an eye doctor appointment, my last appointment with the surgeon before the 14th, went to the facility to do my pre op stuff, and out with friends. Left the house at 2pm and got home at 9.. I have an appointment to go over my bariatric notebook with a bariatric coordinator tomorrow. So in the afternoon I'll catch up with everyone !!

WTG on the great weight loss Geenie ... whoever said they were feeling sad about how everything is going to change.. It's common to feel that way ! And most people say you can go back to pretty much normal life, except in smaller quantities so you're not missing out.

We are doing this for US .. this is our lives ! We are in control ! This is OUR time to live our lives happy and successful lives! We got this !

will catch up tomorrow

Good luck to those tomorrow.. I know LOTS had surgery today... let us know how you're doing. Congrats to the great news on our pioneers who are now going in for first checkups. <3 this board !

XOXOXOXOXOXO to all !!!

Kathy812, I am not sure. My best guess is I am grieving the lifestyle I am about to give up. It sounds sick since the lifestyle I am giving up is unhealthy, painful and exhausting, but, there it is. I tend to process hard emotions before I take the plunge into anything new that is difficult. I am hoping my current sadness will make the post-op "What the heck was I thinking?" bit either non-existent or less severe.

I totally know how you feel. Like in a recent post I wrote all of my milestone I've met in my life included my stomach. We eat to Celebrate life! I'm learning though I've been eating and supporting and unhealthy lifestyle. I am excited for all of us taking on a new approach to a brand new way of life!
