What I can say though is that this GBP stuff is driving me CRAZY! I wish I could just do it already! I have to admit, I am getting a bit apprehensive. I was eating Chipotle with a wonderful friend and realized, "this is the last time I will be eating this!" I have learned to embrace food....and GOOD FOOD at that!
I would be totally dishonest if I said that I am ready. As I look around, my house is a mess and I am just exhausted about thinking about everything that must be done!
I sought a pep-talk from my dad tonight. He has gone through the surgery too. I told him I needed a little encouragement because this is a HUGE commitment. He kindly told me "living is a huge commitment too!" Um....thanks for the pep-talk, I think. Haha I did not know exactly how to take that pep-talk. I just laughed and thought...hmm you are right!
Living IS a commitment. So the question comes down to it....How am I going to live? Miserably large and unhealthy? Or commit to weight loss, less food, exercise, and a long and healthy life? Well the choice is quite clear!
Welcome to a new life, HUGE commitment, and increased Life! Is is worth it? YES Scary?
YOU BET!
YOU BET!
LOVE this one. :) I love the honesty and humility. Always my favorite things about my emily kate.
ReplyDeleteI have first-hand knowledge that you have spent plenty of time in prayer and research on the gastric bypass. You are a wise woman, Emmers, and you will make the decision that is best for you. I love you more than you will every know (until you have babies of your own).
