New Beginnings
on November 28, 2011 12:24 pm
Ok, so i am now 6 days out from surgery, and having a few regrets so far....I know everyone is different, and handles things differently, but although i do feel a little stronger daily, the lack of sleep is killing me!!!!! Lol, seems minimal to complain about after the few complications that I did have from surgery, but being an insomniac to begin with, this is tough.
Im not a back sleeper at all, Ive tried laying on my sides, with pillows under my belly and I can get comfortable for a lil bit, but when i try to move it feels as though someone is ripping my insides out and I have actually cried.....any suggestions????
Other than that, things are going pretty good, i have energy, not vomiting or dumping yet, so I guess im in good shape!!!!!

Major Changes are in the works
on July 14, 2011 4:37 pm
So last night I attended Dr. Pohl's seminar with a good friend...we realized on Monday that we were both attending the same seminar for the same reasons and have made the decision to go thru this together every step of the way. Neither of us were planning on telling anyone except for our children about the surgery. Now neither of us hava any aprehesions about doing it because not only do we have all the support from the support groups and the great people that we met last night and today, but we have each other to call in the middle of the night.
I went to bed and woke up this morning with a whole new outlook on things and feeling that I have made the best decision of my life!!! We went to our first support group today, and it was absolutely amazing. We also made all the neccessary appointments that had to be made, and are beginning our journey.
As of this morning I weighted in at 313 lbs and am 5'8" my BMI is 47.2.....and as of this morning, this is the old me! I will not be this person any longer!!!!!!

Jessica, today you told me that I was your rock, and your back bone (bringing me to tears in front of a room full of strangers) as we sat there and went around the room I thought about what I was going to say to you if we went the other way, so here it goes.
life has brought us together in the oddest of circumstances, and you have helped me make a decision that I struggled with for days before I talked to you in March, and stood by me making sure I was ok during it. You have allowed me to stay a part of Jamies life, and I love her like she was my own. As much as you think I am your rock, you are my and I look up to you for your strength and courage. I am eternally greatfull that we are going thru this together!!!! I could not think of anyone else that I would feel more comfortable with. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart
