I have a date!
Jun 28, 2007
Hey ALL!! As you probably know I have my surgery date scheduled!! for a while I was really hoping I wasn't pregnant, cause that would just ruin everything!
But now I know I'm not pregnant, so I'm just thrilled! I have 1wk and 3 days untill I start doing my preop diet =) OMGosh, everything is getting so real! I just can't believe it!
Dr Zane is amazing, I really like him! I hope I can loose a good amount of my excess weight and look really beautiful. I'm not really nervous at all though, which is strange I guess.
My post op diet will be nothing but liquids for 6 weeks. WOW I hope I can do it withought freaking out too much. I wonder how much weight I will drop just by doing that? oh this is so exciting! I had my LAST all you can eat sushi bash last night. I don't ever want to feel that full again! yuck!.
My husband is really excited for me too, but I think he's getting a little nervous about me getting skinny. He thinks I'm gonna leave him or something. I told him he doesn't have anything to worry about, but he's still worried. He even dreams about me leaving him. I feel sorry for him, poor guy so worried.
He's actually getting the surgery also, I can't WAIT to see what he looks like skinny. He said he's never been skinny in all his life! I haven't really either, I mean I was a skinny little kid, but when it came time for me to start liking to buy cute clothes and stuff I was already in the husky section, barely squeezing into the biggest size they had in the girls section.
I'll update later, when it get's closer to the first day of the rest of my life.. hehe

Maintaining
Jun 16, 2007
I'm SO SHOCKED that I'm able to maintain. I mean.. so far. I've never been able to maintain any kind of weight loss and to tell you the truth it's getting easy. I mean not easy easy but I've changed how I eat so much it's just a mind blower. I'm so excited and I hope I get a date right then and there at the appt. I'm hoping everything goes fast because it's Kaiser and not an affiliated place. =) I can't wait to meet Dr Zane!
I graduate from my supervised diet program called OPTIONS this comming Wednesday. We are having a pool party at a woman's house from the class. I can't figure out what to bring! I really want to make my spagetti salad but I don't think anyone is bringing a carb. I'll probably bring a healthy veggie dip and cucumbers in vinegar =)

Almost there
Jun 14, 2007
Ok so Kaiser called me this morning and I have an appointment in Harbor city with a surgeon by the name of Dr Zane. I am so excited! he does the lapband surgery and the vertical sleeve! I'm SO looking forward to this appointment. My appointment is 2 days before I graduate from OPTIONS so that's kinda cool!
I think I want the sleeve, I know the lapband has alot of complications and that you really have to be in tune, and know how your body feels because there is a chance of slippage and erosion... plus you have to make sure you have the right restriction and everything.. I just hate the idea of not having a permanent tool. Plus, with the roux en y thery mess up your intestines and theres another host of complications that goes with that!
arg!
