I am dealing with fear this week. Fear of gaining my weight back. I still want to lose 55 or so more pounds, and all I can think about is: will I gain all my weight back?
Is that even possible? To eat enough to bypass my "new plumbing" I would have to be completely relentless in my eating..even more so than when I was heavy? I don't know the answer to that.
Maybe I need to talk to other WLS patients.
Why do I always think, when something is going well...the other shoe is going to drop? SIGH...Sometimes, I irritate myself!
The Current and Sassy Me
My Story
November 22, 2005, I had a gastric bypass surgery called the Mini Gastric Bypass. I weighed 292 pounds. (My highest weight was 311 pounds.) I had struggled with the idea of surgery until I read the facts: that the percentage of people who had over 100 pounds to lose that lost it, and kept it off was nil. I was slowly dying.
I lost 147 pounds and my life has changed in so many ways. I am the person I was meant to be. Recently, I started to forget where I came from and lost track and gained some weight back. But like the Phoenix, I rise from the ashes and renew myself. The Warrior returns. Join me as I battle this war, and win.
If I can do this, so can you!
