I'm an over achiever. I had the Sleeve done in 2018, lost 50 lbs, and was starving all the time. So rather than use this incredible tool I was given, I slowly packed on the weight over the years.
Today, I'm back up to where I was 8 years ago. And wiser, well, and wider. My RNY is literally days away, and I'm excited, scared, and greatful. I now know the gift of the liquid stage, the soft stage, etc. Yes, I will eventually get back to "real" food. But I will need to live in the moment, instead of whine about what I can't have. Scared, oh the gas pain those first few days. And, drink my little medicine cup of liquid I will. I want to give my body the health it deserves, the weight God intended for me. This surgery is just a tool. I get that now. Let's do this! Who's with me?!
