Oops, I'm burning!
Linda, You're on the OH board, so you probably know this. I am getting deep fried, don't skimp on the oil!!! There was a woman, pre-op, 66, and I told her that things will change soooo much post-op. That she might see herself as heavy and grey now (I did myself, but I'm kinda happy with how I look now, and proud of my aching bones which I acquired biking w/ my kids)) but wls would take 20 yrs. off of her. The body, the attitude...being a participant in life. People blossom.
She e-mailed me and told me to drop dead, in capital letters. Got a couple other nasties, too. Not surprisingly, all from pre-ops.
Geez, know I was there in my head at that point. Just goes to prove my point. We change! We think it's all physical, but the mental is where the real party is!!
Well, that's what you get when you have a big mouth and don't pussyfoot. I got 3 supportive emails for each stinger. Gotta focus on the good, not dwell on the bad.
Hug me! LOL!!!
Vicki
