Current mood: In need of cat

I called the hospital to ask when I’m supposed to be summoned there for talk about a gastric bypass. And I found out that you have to wait three months. It’s already been one month, or maybe I should say ‘already’ because it does seem to have been much longer. Time goes by so slow when you’re waiting for something.

I think alot about the surgery, or rather, how things will be after the surgery. It concerns me a bit that I’m only thinking that I will have cats (yes, I will get one sacred birman, and then if that works out, a British shorthair also). But I don’t seem to worry much about the fact that I will radically have to change my lifestyle. It’s not just about eating less, it’s about eating more often. For me (who hasn’t had regular meals since I was a kid) this will be the hardest I think, getting used to eat like six times a day. Which is the way you should eat, a little at a time and several times a day, and not like me, who eat three times (tops) and bigger portions.
And.. The big And! It’s for life. I’ll never be able to eat whole pizza again! Maybe a quarter of a pizza at the most, I don’t know. Maybe I’ll not be able to eat it at all. It seems to be a few things that you can’t eat and that’s very individual.
So, I should adjust to that idea, of eating less. But it’s hard. I want to think of all the fun things, like feeling comfortable in my own skin and the fact that I can wear clothes that is more ‘my style’ that just plain t-shirts. I’m bored with those now, but I’m too fat to wear anything fun, because they come in too small sizes :S

Let’s talk about something more fun… Cats!!! As said, the cat I’m getting first and foremost is a sacred birman. I so love those cats, they are bautiful and seem to have a good temperament. And then, for some reason, I also found a British shorthair in the color of black silver shaded when googling (for cats I guess). It was just so beautiful, so I think I’m having one of those as well.
