Reflection.... defining moment.

Aug 15, 2011

I remember, when I KNEW I needed to take back my life from myself, I was at a farm auction, which me and my husband love to go to, this particular one was situated on a little bit of an uphill grade, as I was struggling to climb to the top I'm being passed by ladies much older than me, these ladies barley broke a sweat. I thought OK I have got to do something I was afraid to dream this would happen for me. I went to my seminar in Nov 2010. was very excited about the band, but the more I learned about the band the less I liked it, I'm really glad I did not get one, RNY was never an option for me, my mother-in-law had one in the 70s, and was ill until she passed away in 1986, she was always having electrolyte issues, imbalances etc. even though I know they have changed the way it is done, and it is safer, my husband was totally against it.  finding the VSG was a godsend. I'm very thankful for this opportunity to get a new start, I'm fortunate to be able to afford to do this. I don't take this gift lightly and I will do my best to be successful.  This will be the one selfish thing I'm doing for ME. I'm sorry if some don't understand, or approve, but this is right for me. I'm hoping to keep my friends but Ive decided if they leave because I'm thin they weren't worth having anyway. I'm comfortable with my decision, it is after all........... mine.  the panic feeling is gone, I'm at peace, this is right.
