Life Change for the Better!

Well,  I did it!  And sooner than expected too!  I underwent bariatric surgery.  Some people would say that it’s the “easy”  way out of diet and exercising.  Let me first to tell you…  It is NOT easy and in fact this is probably the hardest route to take.  I’ve been on a liquid diet for almost 1 month now.  It has been hell,  but to see results on the scale is so rewarding!  I have my follow up appt today so I am hoping that I can move on to pureed food.  Any of you that know me very well understands that I never really had much a weight problem before getting Lyme disease.  When I got sick,  it has pretty much taken my life away from me,  especially what I love doing which is being active and participating in every sport or event I can.  But with chronic pain, you can hardly do anything and it’s sad when you can’t walk around a store anymore or something simple as taking a shower.  Well that being said,  I needed help to conquer my goal and boost self esteem and confidence.  This was the hardest decision but the best decision I’ve made. It’s going to be hard and every day will have its own struggles,  but I’m so excited to see what will happen next! Thank you to my supporters!
