I am a bit confused as to what I am supposed to relax about. I know personaly that many other patients that are under 6 months out have the same fears and misgivings that I do.....they just don't have a running journal that puts their fears into words. So, do I stop fearing that I can eat too much and relax? Being that I can eat over 1700 calories a day without ever feeling full concerns me, but should I just relax? What about the fact that I was told by more than one surgeon that the chances of me losing to an ideal body weight was highly unlikely, should I just relax? Should I just relax and be content to lose 50lbs, should I not exersize.....my surgeon specifically told me "you need to get your heart rate up and do resistance work, people walk all day every day. Walking is not enough" I wasn't 100lbs overweight, not technically because of my muscle density, so the weight is not falling off me like some others who have 150-250 lbs to lose yet I had the same surgery, the same recovery and the same fight trying to get to this point so I am going to work hard to get the results I would like to see. To anyone who thinks they had this surgery to relax.......good luck. And to anyone who had the surgery and portrays that my fears haven't been their fears.....even just for a glimpse of a second.....LIAR!
