Gastric Bypass Surgery Support Group
Gastric bypass (GBP) is any of a group of similar operative procedures used to treat morbid obesity, a condition which arises from severe accumulation of excess weight in the form of fatty tissue, and the health problems ("co-morbidities") which result. If you are considering gastric bypass or have had it, join the community where we share our experiences and find support.
Life is the way you see it. Life is the way you perceive it to be.
If you constantly focus on all the things that could go wrong, things will indeed go wrong. Turn your focus to the positive possibilities, and those possibilities begin to become real.
Expect to find the resources you seek, and they will be there. Know that life's abundance is available to you, and more of it flows through your life.
From your perspective, everything is subject to your own interpretation of it. Much more important than what happens is what you make of it, and you can make of it anything you choose.
You are never at the mercy of random events unless you allow yourself to be. No matter what may come your way, you can decide what it means to you and how you will integrate it into your life.
The life you live is the life you choose to see and to experience. Choose, in this moment and every moment, to fill it with joy, meaningful purpose and fulfillment.

"There is no reality, only perception."
I know I've been thru a lot (haven't we all) but today is the 20th day of excruciating pain unless I'm holding ice to my abdomen and do not make a move. I think it's just getting to the best of me. But even at my lowest point I must admit that in my gratitude book I've listed my boyfriend for his endless support and patience and honestly, all of you in the group... I'm sooo grateful for each and all of you!
Thanks again for the motivation, it's uplifting and thought provoking.
