I hate waiting. No, scratch that... I loathe waiting. And the fact that I have no control over exactly how long my wait will be... well, that just makes it all the worse. There, I said it. I'm sure I'm far from being the only person that can't stand to wait.
I've reached my pre-surgery goal weight. Yippee for me! I've actually surpassed the goal by 3 pounds so I've got a little wiggle room for stress! And boy, has there been stress these last few weeks. In addition to the bariatric surgery, I am waiting on shoulder surgery of some kind. The pain at night is insane. I've been dealing with it but there is only so much this moose can take... I'm hoping relief will come soon.
To add to my list of loathings... my periods have been awful since stopping my birth control pill (a prerequisite for the bariatric surgery). Heavy and cramp filled don't accurately describe what's going on. Sooooo, because I am menstal AND anxious AND in pain... I turn to food. Yeah, something I am NOT suppose to be doing. Something I am suppose to be working on since I am clearly "not an emotional eater". Ugh! I'll get through this eventually. I have to dig deep... after I get through this week that is.
Okay... (sigh)
Sorry to have vented and complained.
Sorry for not having updated in awhile too.
Stay strong! I know it's easier said than done, but you can do it. I know this is an older post, so I'm hoping you found a path that works for you and you're having success in reaching your goals. Best of luck to you!!
