Describe your behavioral and emotional battle with weight control before learning about bariatric surgery.
I am an emotional eater and I have gotten out of that in the past few months!! Before I learned about WLS I did diet after diet: SlimFast, WW, Low Fat, Low Carb, Exercise like a health freak, drank so much water that I started to pee like a pregnant woman I couldn't even go anywhere that was more than 5 or 10 min away because I would almost pee myself!! Before I knew about WLS I thought I was doomed to do these diets for the rest of my life and fail miserably every time!! I would do whatever diet I was on for 3-6 months with minimal results!! So then I would just give up and I would look in the mirror and punch my stomache, I would grab my thighs, and my arms, I hated the way I looked and still do since I'm still pre-op!! I would always think that...

Quitting Smoking Day 1!!
on July 5, 2012 9:10 pm
Ok so today I decided that there's no time like the present to quit smoking!! I'm pre op and haven't even been to the seminar yet!! That's July 24th!! But I wanted to get a start at making better choices to a healthier life!! I know this is going to be hard but I am willing to give it my all!! I will have to quit anyway if I want this surgery and I do want it really bad!! One day at a time and I will be blogging everyday about my progress!! I know I can do this!! Then next thing is cutting soda out but one thing at a time!! So far so good!!
