You all know that girl. The one with boobs the size of grapes that suddenly comes back from a two week vacation with grapefruits. You know she had surgery but she isn’t going to share that information with you.
I have thought about what to tell people about losing weight. Could I say I have lost weight through hard work and diet (which would be true) and omit the surgery factor? I could, but I won’t. That’s not me.
I have lived a lot of my life with my heart on my sleeve and my soul open for all to see. I share what is going on in my world with others and I will not hesitate to tell peole that I am losing weight through hard work AND with the help of surgery. Why deny it? I want people to know that surgical weight loss is a very real option for those that can’t do it on exercise and diet alone.
So here I am. With my heart on my sleeve and my soul wide open. Hoping to share this journey. Or to just to write about it for my own therapy.
I will never be “thin”. If you look at me, I am big. My hands and feet are big, my shoulders are broad and oh goodness, I have the biggest head ever. And I don’t care about being a size 4. I want to do this because I want to be healthy. I want to add years to my life by losing weight. I want to be involved the lives of my grandchildren just as I have been blessed with amazing grandparents.
So here I go.
