ANOTHER YEAR!



Recommended Posts

Another year without making the same old NEW YEAR's RESOLUTIONS..... For the second year in a row, I have not made a resolution to start a diet on January 2 or to join a gym on January 2. It's so damn liberating to have that monkey off of my back..... and 150 pounds too. :)

I was thinking today the same thing, this will be my 2nd New Year since being banded. It is so wonderful not to be worried about another diet and what new diet program would try. I will be making food for our annual "pig roast" New Years party at a neighboring farm. I make a great coconut cake and usually a corn casserole . This year I will make the cake too but will probably take something healthier that I can eat. Not going to fret about it and just enjoy the day. We are supposed to have sunny and 70 deg Happy New Year and Healthier Year to everyone

AMEN to that....TV is full of commercials for this and that weight loss.....activity at my gym is increasing much to the personal trainers delight.

Ironic thing is, come March-April all those resolutions will be forgotten. All those "I'm going to do it this time" diets will not be talked about.

I too am so glad to be set free - liberated from all that nonsense.

Lap Band surgery may be the easy way out, but it's forever! Without having to constantly be setting goals, challenges or New Years resolutions.

Just live the new life!

      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.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
