The past few weeks have been a blur. As the school year has progressed, life has gotten progressively busier. Part of it is by choice, and part of it is the natural progression of the school year. And yet another part of it is the new habits and behaviors one must adopt when choosing to have weight loss surgery.
We talked in our weekly weight loss support group tonight about how life tends to drastically change as new behaviors are implemented that were not previously a part of one’s life and how this might place strain on relationships you have with others. I am fortunate in that my social support network understands the importance of these changes, and that they are supportive of my decision to take control of my health in this way. I am also fortunate in that my husband is following the exact same path as I am, and that he too is sympathetic to the behavior changes, because he is making them too.
In all of this, though, I feel as though I am losing balance–there is a disturbance in the Force that is Me.
