Congratulation Sue!

I just finished reading the weight loss surgery book. It was really
a good read. I found myself in that book. I go for my consultation
with the surgeon on April 28, 2005. I have been approved by my
insurance company. It seems like it is taking forever though. I am
excited and scared at the same time. I have been dieting for 25
years and I just can’t wait to finally see my way to being thin. I
realize the effort that will come with this surgery and believe me I
am more than willing to do it. I have weaned myself off of diet
pepsi.
Sue,
Congratulations..you are on your way to a thinner and healthier life
(not to mention much happier)! I know exactly what you mean about
having to wean yourself from diet drinks. I was the worst Diet Coke
addict around for over twenty years before my RNY in July 2003. But
after two years of no Diet soda I took a small sip a few months ago
and found it disgusting! Your drink and food desires certainly change
after the surgery! I find myself actually wanting salads now instead
of Whoppers or Big Macs………something that shocks me to the core!
(It is so true what they say……”Nothing tastes as good as being
thin feels!”)
