Best thing about wls..

[phatmomma]

I've thought long and hard about this and have to say the best thing about wls is:

Being in control, food no longer rules my every thought.

Even though I'm not that far out from my op, I would have to say I agree with that 100%.

Was just having a conversation with my OH along those exact lines.

to a degree i agree, food at the moment seems to be my only thought as i cant eat enough and fret and worry about not getting enough this and not getting enought that but hopefully when i get to the same stage as you and your fantastic acheivement i wont be thinking about it that much as i will have a routine and will know what im doing hopefully xxx

I agree 100% and have said this to many ppl when questioned about WLS. I still think about food and love food, but in a different way than before. There is no longer this invisible pull to eat eat eat. I guess it has a lot to do with numbing my emotions so I wouldn't feel anything. I no longer do that and I have worked on living my emotions and dealing with them then and there. Without the food to make everything better! It's a work in progress but I feel that I'm on the right track.
