Hi Cathy...you might want to talk to your doctor about your concerns about your weight. Being overweight can make surgery more difficult, but many sisters have been through it and come out fine. (and we all secretly hope for that 25 lb fibroid... )
Would you be better off if you were able to shed some pounds? Probably, but a stressful time is NOT the best time to try dieting!! I found that after my hyst, I had great motivation to add healthier eating habits to my "new lease on life". Since I was feeling so much better without all my awful symptoms, and I needed to be walking a little each day anyway, I was able to change alot of bad habits!
After your surgery, visit Hysteritaville , our post-op health & fitness forum, for some good ideas on getting more fit...and check out the BEST forum there, too!
I hope that you will feel great after your surgery and will be able to make the changes you want. It's a great second chance at getting healthy.
Karen
