For as long as I can remember I've struggled with my weight. I am so not going to bore you with that crap though, because as of March 16, 2010 I'm a Lap Banded Betty looking for fat comment revenge on a lonely road.
Why did I do it? Because no one likes to be fat, what a stupid question.
Why didn't you try alternative means? Ummmm do you think surgery was my first choice? Yeah, no it wasn't, so of course I tried other stuff.
Do you think it's considered the "easy way out?" So far, with 5 incisions circling my abdomen, a port attached to the muscle lining of said abdomen, eating pureed meals, and having to walk every day .... yeah gonna go out on a hunch and say that NO, it wasn't the "Easy way out." That's called Liposuction. K, thx, bye.
You go girl!! Good luck on your journey. It's definitely not the easy way out. Changing your life in anyway is never easy. We get so use to what we do that change seems impossible besides all the temptation. The easy way out would be to say it's too hard and not trying. Props to you my oldest (yet younger than me) and most excellent friend. ♥ you no matter how you are but respect you for what you are doing. Hang in there sweetie!! P.S. I think lipo would have sucked more. This is baby steps and with slow weight loss and exercise comes firmness. Lipo brings saggy skin...and unattractiveness. Besides, nothing worth while is easy to come by.
