Re: My RNY and my New Life
i cant believe that my 1 year anniversary of my RNY is only 12 days away.
i know this thread has been slow and getting old, but i cant remember how many times ive read it, post by post, to see the journey from the beginning to present.. It makes me happy to see all the support i received from my brothers.. It also puts me back in check and remember my journey.. Ive never been one to document anything; im not much of a writer.. However this thread and its participants has been medicine to my soul.. I remember my entire life, always wondering what it would be like to be "normal".. I remember pacing in front of the refrigerator sometimes, in the middle of the night, while "dieting".. I remember telling my parents that id give my life savings to be normal. In 30 years, i was never abke to go to a mall and buy clothes.. Just as cigars are a slippery slope; declining health is the same way... I never understood the lifestyle change that was needed.. This has given me the tools to get my life on path.. And while this "new me" is literally something that i saw in my dreams for half of my life, it has been bumpy.. Anxiety. Fear. Discouragement. Confusion. Uncertainty. You name it.... This has been the hardest thing i've ever had to do, and surprisingly the weight part wasn't the hard portion.. It was the understanding how to live life on the other side of the coin.. Heck, im still not sure how to adjust to it.. I know a few members on here who have had this done, and i am fairly certain that they are the only ones who can truly relate to this from a psychological standpoint. Nothing wrong with it.. Its just how it is.. While i type this, i think back at all the things that have changed.. As a guy who is about to turn 32, its tough to understand "changes" that are seemingly happening in warp speed.. But I guess it was me who signed up for the change, so sometimes you have to take on a few bumps even when you travel the right path I could literally write here for hours; all the trials and tribulations of this road, however without trying to sound like a pretentious douchebag, i will reprieve for the night and say thank you.. Thank you to god, and to the people that have been a part of my life, for better and for worse.. And to my brothers who have supported me on here.. Thank you |
