well yesterday was my one year anniversary and I have lost 156lbs and I have many mixed emotions as far as how it has changed my life. For one I feel oh so much better my Reflux is gone my high blood pressure is gone, high cholosterl gone. I have way more energy and I do so so much more than before and I now have a sex life again with my hubby...LOl :-) but then there are other things like people that came into the store where I work a millions times before I had WLS surgery and it was yeah hi ring me up and now it is like the same people will now go out of there way to talk to me now. I want to know why could they not talk to me before was the fat girl not worth their time worth their conversation?? My friends are calling all the time to ask me to go out and stuff now and they didnt before ..were they ashame to be seen with me. This really hurts but at the same time back then I probally would have told them no I tell them no now because I have no time to spend with my kids as it is becasue of work.
And my job ...I worked just as hard then at 326lbs as I do now.. I unloaded trucks and put out freight and all just as good back then. But now I voice that fact to everyone that I dont understand if I could empty 8 uboats , run register and take out the trash and it is only me and one other person here why is it you guys are only doing one uboat and not taking out the trash. So before I guess because I was big I deserved to be punished and do all the work now I am like wait a damn min I am tired of this you guys are going to start working to!!!! So I guess my weight loss has made me relize that I am worth more I have more self esteem and respect for my self and I tell people hey I am not going to be used any more so Thank you Dr.Afram so so much. I could go on and on for pages and pages but I will stopr here :-)
