You know, I’ve noticed that a few of my friends, Jenn from Jenn.nu and Lady Rose from 2 Witches Blog to start with, have undergone the gastric bypass weight loss surgery. I think it’s great that they’ve taken these steps towards getting healthy. I only wish I could do so. However, I will be relegated to things such as Kettlebell workouts (which actually look kind of interesting to be honest), Pilates (as much as my morbidly obese butt can do them), and trying to start eating right.
Not being able to get the gastric bypass is not a matter of not having insurance or a job right now, although that does not help. The fact of the matter is, I would have to have my hiatal hernia fixed first, which is something that my doctor has stated he is firmly against due to a side effect of that surgery – with gastric bypass, if you overeat (TMI coming, I’m sorry), I’ve heard that you throw up. (At least my boss who had it did.) The fix for the hiatal hernia literally renders you incapable of throwing up. Ummmm, no thank you. I’d need to be able to do that! LOL
Also, frankly, the road to getting it done is a long and arduous one that frankly, if I were working full time, I doubt I’d be able to take the time off to have the surgery done in the first place.
So that leaves me with the good old methods of trying to lose the weight. I had a blog where I talked about my weight loss, perhaps I’ll either resurrect it, or I’ll create a new one. We’ll see.
