It began years ago with an apple, a fig, a man and a woman. Yep He created man, took that prime rib from him and created woman...the beginning. So, food was on the scene in chapter 1. From there, well, you know the rest. Prime rib, bar-b-que ribs, Apple Cobbler, Fig Preserves, need I say more? And, of course, we have always had the freedom of choice. ME? I have chosen the sweet, the fat and the ugly! Devil's Food Chocolate cookies (see, the Devil's in this mix), juicy Ribeye steak marbled with delicious FAT and Lay's potato chips. Dang, I never could eat just one (package)!!!
So, ce la vie and 'status quo'...the mess I'm in and about to dig out of with six golden shovels that will dive into the tummy and plant the 'charge'. Lap Band and laproscopic...hand in hand, so they told me yesterday.
The folks in the meeting yesterday were interesting. From XL to Super XXXL. Funny how many diverse shapes a human body can take. Many were nervous as seen via their questions. Simple things like 'has anyone died in this surgery?' 'How many times have you done this surgery?' 'What happens if something gets stuck in the opening?' That's cute! THE OPENING? But, true. The opening becomes about as big around as the top of your little finger. It's okay...meals become three a day no larger than 4 to 6 ounces depending on how quickly the 'full' sign lights up in the brain. And, the intake of fluid must be a half hour before or an hour after a meal. Not enough room in the inn for many visitors.
Truth is for me...I'm ready. This is like a new 'birth day' and a second beginning. I've fooled a lot of folks hangin' around this long. Perhaps it will be an extended stay now. We shall see. I'm livin' and lovin' life now, not sure how much that can improve, but maybe lots and look out...just what I NEED -- M O R E E N E R G Y!!!! lololol
Wishes for a great day for everyone!!
