Shopping done. Main course – slimfast. Taste was unimportant, all that was important was the goal. And there was no more time for cheating. After all, it was only 10 days until the operation. My blood pressure was rising every time the days passed. For some reason, I couldn’t wait to share this news with my psychologist as well. The next appointment was on Tuesday, two days before the operation. By then I was going through an emotional Roller Coster. I was thinking that maybe I can manage on my own after all? A few days passed on a liquid diet and I lost 4 kg. Why did I need this operation? Why this invasion, pain and suffering? These were the thoughts I had for the first seven days or so. When Monday came, I started to reflect and prepare for my new life after the surgery. There were no more questions surrounding the decision. There was no more hesitation.

The next day I met with a psychologist. I had a moment of doubt there. She stated that without surgery I could also be on fluids and lose weight. That her client after sleeve had lost a lot of weight and then put it back on. I have to say that I was heartbroken. I had everything already sorted out in my head and here suddenly was such a twist. I didn’t give up. I knew I was ready. I knew, I would lose weight without the surgery and get big again as soon as I stop eating chicken and rice. I’m 44 and I finally have a chance to change things, permanently (I hope).
