biding time

May 28, 2009 22:47

So, I am set for surgery on July 6. Why? Gastric Bypass. I am excited. I had considered it about 2 years ago, but backed out. Now is the time for me since my co-morbidities have quadrupled. I want to be around for my children. People look at me and say, hey, you're not that big, and I correct them. I can hide my roundness very well with bigger clothes, but the double chins are disgusting to me. Self image is at all time low right now. I can't even ride roller coasters with my son, which I would love to do this year. To be able to fit into non elastic waistband clothes and feel "skinny". I sleep almost all the time, and have to control my emotional eating and get back on exercise wagon. My son is getting a little on the heavy side and his brother calls him names. I hate that and tell my youngest it is not polite to tease. Reminds me of my sister who was always skinny and always picked on me in front of her friends for amusement. Now I hear the tables have turned and she has gained lots of weight. I am not happy to hear that since my family just recently lost our brother to brain ca, I would hate to hear that she lost her life due to weight.

well, enough of my soap box. Had to just "Twitter?"
I had posted an entry about 3 weeks ago discussing that in front of Star Trek movie, a cartoon trailer "9" by Tim Burton will be released this year. Guess who the lead voice character is? None other than Elijah Wood.
