It's nice to know I'm not so stupid that I'd choose to take the hard way out.
This Anonymous commentor from CK, said WLS is the easy way out. OKay, follow me here.
I have depression and anxiety. I take medication to help my neurochemicals react properly. This is the easy way out. I guess the hard way is to live with the torturous feelings, with brain chemicals not functioning well and pray alot that they go away.
I have had over 3 dozen surgeries to repair the damage that Crohns disease has in some way done to my body. This was the easy way out. I should have just let my body rot from the inside out and died along time ago.
I took the easy way out when I was a kid by getting help for my dyslexia. The hard way would have been to tough it out and stay illiterate.
I spent 38 years on a gain and lose and gain and lose rollercoaster. I gained some of this weight due to medications from my easy way out with my Crohns disease. The rest was because I found that my body is hungry all the time and because there is a chemical reaction in me that was preventing me from getting the final handle on losing the weight. I took the easy way out. I got help by having a band inserted around my upper stomach designed to help the body determine fullness. I guess the hard way was to keep my my mouth shut all the time and live with physical pains from hunger, stay on the rollercoaster and risk a heart attack or stroke before the age of 50.
I take medication for migraines. I take the easy way out because I refuse to live with uncontrolled pain.
I inject Humira into my leg every week to keep my Crohns in remission and my arthritis in check. The hard way would be to be crippled and sick 24/7
Etc. Etc...
I watch my food intake and exercise regime every single day so closely that some days I am furious that I have to do it. It is the hardest thing I have ever had to do.
Sorry folks, the easy way out is to cop out and do nothing. The hard way is to accept that sometimes you need modern medical intervention to help achieve a goal.
I have always said that in Darwin's Survival of the Fittest world I would not survive.
Thank goodness I don't have to.
