Surgeon Testimonial

Jason Beaver
Meeting Dr. Beavers, I found him to be very honest and precise about his job. He doesnt sugar coat the surgery at all. Overall I was very impressed with him and his procedures of meeting and discussing the WLS. He lets you know that they carefully screen there patients to make sure that they are getting only patients that can benifit from having this surgery. You have to go through there procedures before you can submit for approval, all the way down to seeing there psych for evaluation. When I get further I wil llet you know more about this.rnrn

    Hey Becky, Just stopping by to wish you a "Happy Anniversary"! (oops, I'm a few minutes late~~I'm sorry!) Just realized the time and thought, oh no, you better send Becky msg and then see WHAT TIME it is. (well to me it's still Thurs. lol) Anyhow, hope that you've had a special day!!! I'm sure it's hard to believe that a whole year has come and gone already for you. You've done such a GREAT JOB! You're truly an inspiration to me! I wish you continued success in your WLS. Take care & God Bless You~~~Lisa

A NEW ME?
on July 31, 2008 6:20 pm

AGAIN--I AM ASHAMED OF MYSELF. I HAVE DRIFTED FROM WHAT THIS SURGERY HAS DONE FOR ME AND LET FOOD START TO TAKE MY LIFE BACK OVER AGAIN.  I GUESS IN A SENSE AND PRAY THAT  OF COURSE ADMITTING IS THE FIRST STEP.  I AM IN A COMMUNITY THOUGH THAT WLS IS NOT THAT PREVALENT--BUT THERE HAS BEEN RECENTLY A SUPPORT GROUP STARTED BUT DUE TO MY JOB SCHEDULE IT IS HARD FOR ME TO MAKE THE TIME TO GO.  WHAT IS ONE TO DO.  WELL I WANT TO TAKE MY LIFE BACK AGAIN--AND I THINK , NO I NO!!! I CAN DO THIS.  FOR ONE, I HAVE TO START SHARING MY EMOTIONS WITH MY BLOGS.  I THINK KEEPING ALL THIS EMOTION AND ENERGY IN IS ONE OF THE MOST GIGANTIC THINGS I AM DOING WRONG  TO MYSELF...WHICH IN TURN LEAD FOOD AS MY COMFORT ZONE.

I HAD TO LEAVE ALABAMA TO MAKE MY LIFE COMPLETE AGAIN.  I HAVE HAD SO MUCH TRADGEDY IN MY LIFE THERE THAT I NEEDED MORE TO FOCUS ON.  THAT IS WHERE MY DH AND WLS CAME TO PLAY I GUESS.  MY DH IS SUCH A GREAT MAN HE SUPPORTS ME IN ANY DECISION I MAKE INCLUDING HAVING THE WLS.  HE WAS HAPPY WITH WHO I AM AND ALWAYS IS BUT HE WANTED MOST FOR ME TO BE HAPPY...SO I HAD IT OF COURSE AS YOU MAY OR MAY NOT KNOW ON 3/2/05 WITH DR. BEAVER IN DOTHAN AL.I HAVE CAME TO FAR SINCE MY SURGERY TO LET MYSELF GO--I MEAN I WENT FROM BEING A CORRECTIONAL OFFICER FOR DOC--TO GETTING PROMOTED WHICH WAS ONE OF MY GOALS TO SEARGEANT.  NOW I WORK AS A SHERIFFS DEPUTY IN DETENTION MAKING EVEN MORE MONEY.  YOU THINK THAT WOULD MAKE ME HAPPY--WELL IT DOES OF COURSE :-) BUT I KNOW IF I PUT MY MIND AND HEART TO IT I CAN DO GREATER THINGS WITH MY LIFE.

I HAVE TO GET BACK TO MY WORK FOR NOW.  I DO FEEL HAPPY THAT I WROTE THIS. 

NEW ME?? WELL I HAVE A NEW SURGEON AS OF YESTERDAY.  I AM GOING TO BE SEEING DR. OVERCASH IN OCALA IN SEPTEMBER FOR FOLLOW UP AND WHO KNOW? 

MORE LATER WORK CALLS

BACK TO THE DOCUT

Well first and formost I am ashamed of myself....I have not posted in so long.  It is not like me to be like this but there has been so much going on over the years as you may or may not know.  

I just came from Orlando over the weekend Visiting with my friends and making new ones of course and this years OH event.  I learned alot and realized that there is still alot of me to go to get to my achieved goal but of course I will get there in due time.

Gail, Betsy...it was great to see you two again.  Next time we will have to have more time so I can go with you two back to the Goochi{SP?} shop.  I told DH about that and he said he would kill me HAHAHAHAAHAHAHAH....but it was a though.

Some pics from the event are posted here on my blog.

February 10, 2006--
Happy early V-DAy. Man I swore I would be better this year at writing in my journal. Guess I haven't really been up to it but I will try. After looking at my journal one thing really sticks out at me---I need a remodleing job here. I love the job that was done in the begining but I think it is time to have my profile redone. I will email Kim and see if she will still help me get somethign new started.

I hope that you are all well that is reading this at this time. My year has basically started the way it ended--still on this plateau stump--up/down/up/down. This I have come to realize is nothing more than jsut me. I have had a few good things happen while I have been on this slump--my cycle has come back into check...I have never had a monthly until Oct. of last year and has pretty much been around ever month since then., This is so great !!! DH and I are still hoping to be able to have kids, with that idea up in the air before surgery being the doctors were sure my weight was holding that up, maybe this will eventually become a reality for me. THe other thing is I know I have lost a few more inches in my chest. Currently I am wearing a 2X {16-18 or 18-20} in the chest pending on the shirt and am wearingn a 18-20 in jeans {pending on brand}. I really could not ask for more. I am very happy with my loss and really hope to continue with more. I keep reassuring myself that it will happen--jsut give it time. Patients has never been a virtue for me but for once I have to give in and be patient so GOD PLEASE GIVE ME STRENGTH!!

Other than that I am still a memeber of the Bama board. We are going strong. Secret Pals are still going strong on there too ...lets see this is my 4th time on it. Oh and I jsut joined the OH board secret Pal group. I have a great pal there too and hope to make a good friend off it. If anyone is interested in it you can find Secret Pals forum on the forums boardon OH listed between P-S .

I am gonna go for now--Take care all!!

~~Love Ya!! Becky

Angels Among Us - Alabama


INTRODUCTION
I have basically been an overchild person since day one. over the years I have been on the yo-yo as far as weight goes up til lthese last few years of my life. i am almost 29 years old, 6ft 1 and weigh entirly tooo much. i have sweeling problems in the legs, high blood pressure, and sleep apnea. on top of that heart diease defintly runs in my family, and I have never had a true cycle. My husband and I hope to have family of our own one day. I truely beleive that my weight has been a big factor in having children, cause I have been told that my being over weight is the only reason why I dont ovulate right. Well who knows???? I am just tired of feeling like two people in one. I need adoctor that can help me, not want to preach at me.
