Weight Loss Surgery: B.S. — Remembering the time before surgery.

The How & Why of my weight loss surgery.

Just found this video from 2009 just after my weight loss surgery..

Looking back to the time before undergoing weight loss surgery…

Affectionately named — B.S. , because it makes me smile.
…on where my head was at one week post op and then again a few weeks post op.

So many things were running through my mind at that time.
But what about before surgery?
Another story all together, yes indeed.
Researching, thoughts, more research, you tube videos, what does this mean to me…on and on, thoughts gushing out all over the place.

I’ve been thinking about sharing some writings on the research process prior to weight loss surgery. I haven’t heard much on the internet about the thought process during that time, and I bet it would be useful during your weight loss surgery research. How would this metamorphosis fit into your already oh-so-full life? Great question which deserves an answer….

I’ve recently found some of my writings from before I made the decision to have surgery. I can sense it’s the right time to make some of those things public.

Stay tuned for those writings..
In the mean time, I’m curious about a couple things and would appreciate your voice.

If you’re undecided about weight loss surgery and have questions,

I’d like to know what they are. Wondering what is running through that head of yours, I’d love to be in on that internal conversation.
Let me know if I’m getting warm or if you’re feeling a mid winter shiver down your spine right about now with these questions…

Will I change after the surgery?

Can I be safe, vulnerable, beautiful at the same time or will I have to
give up parts of myself?

If I consent to this surgery does this mean that I’m admitting that I’m somehow broken or flawed?

How about this one –
Are you seeing your choice more like an either/or sacrifice?
Personally, I’m a big fan of the word ‘and’ – using it liberally.
Why should we limit ourselves?
