It's not so much the weight loss itself as much as how drastically my diet is going to have to change. I mean when I was disagnosed Diabetic my diet only changed a little. It was more about moderating portion sizes a little mroe than anything else. But now we're talking a giant change. I used to rely on canned pasta alot... but it's so full of fat that that's out. I love my fried potatoe products, and used to have french fries and stuff baked in the oven pretty regularly but now ALL fried food is out. I used to rely pretty heavily on peanut butter and bread too, but now I'll have to switch to light peanut butter and eat it alot less because it's so fatty. Bread will have to be cut way back so I'm so screwed for lunches. I don't eat much vegetables or fruits... There's just a lot that needs to change and I need to find things to eat regularly... It's going to be probably the most difficult thing I've done to date. It will certainly be worth it though... and thanks for the support and well wishes. <3

Fruits and veggies don't agree with me ;.; I eat corn, broccoli and cauliflower... sometimes green and yellow beans depending on where they're from. Fruits are a little different, but I generally don't like to just pick em up and eat them. Also going to have to look into rice... or something. Just going to be tough to just find things to eat when I'm used to just popping open a can of chef boyardee and tossing it in the microwave or nuking up some pizza pockets. I'll just have to start planning meals and cooking things... big lifestyle changes.

What a terrible day! I'm sorry you had such a bad time but it sounds like it could've been worse? Arrogant doctors give me rage.

Best of luck with the diet and weight! I know you can do it!

Hoping I never have to deal with Harrison again... Unfortunately might have to do a post-op follow up, but after that... never again. Yes... it could have been worse, I could be seriously ill and laid up right now or dead. It'll certainly be rough to deal with the severe diet changes and exercise... I'm very disinclined to those areas. I'm a nerd, my idea of exercising is the walk between the workstation to the server room and lots of typing.

But honestly... thanks for the support and well wishes ^^ I wasn't really sure if I expected anything to reply to this... I'm always so cynical when it comes to my LJ, maybe I'll try to get posting more...

I still say you should have thrown a shoe in your sisters face and called her a dumb cunt. But that's me.

Thanks, though if you had really hugged me tightly in person I'd probably pass out in pain :: lol :: ^^
