At first I thought the surgery for the sleeve was much less invasive or severe than the bypass. After repeatedly looking at that same chart we all see at the doctors office and online, with that looonnng row of staples where those two slices are made all of the way down both sides of where my stomach used to be, didn't look so easy-peasy any longer.
Then I started reading. Cheating is easier with the sleeve. Well, if I had a staunch and firm willpower, I'd be looking like an Olympic swimmer right about now. I hate nausea and, throwing up makes me ILL, BAD! Those two consequences will absolutely dissuade me from venturing to far from between-the-ditches!
I already like both shakes and smoothies made with veggies or skim. I bought a handy-dandy pill crusher that will allow me to pour my powdered supplements into my blender.
With our fabulously fair winters I can harvest very nutritious veggies all year round! With the very lean meat from our hunting, I should hardly have to supplement to a large degree.
I like the fact that the weight starts falling quickly. My terrible blood sugar numbers will start improving immediately. This high blood pressure will be impacted greatly soon after surgery. The CPAP octopus will no longer be fastened onto my face while I sleep!
Just seems right for me. Let me be clear, this diatribe was not meant to sway any one's opinion in any direction. All this might seem simple and silly. But, I can assure y'all that I spent some serious time in serious thought to arrive here. Hard thinking and this paltry squibbling is all I could muster up. Oh well?
Think about exactly where you want to be and, then think about the best way for you to arrive there!
