2013 Last Chance
on January 9, 2013 10:09 am

  Life can be fun and it can be devasting ..I've started evaluation my life and how I want to live it..So I started to put myself back in the race but its a race for my life I will be 57 years this year..and slowly but fast pace of killing myself with bad food choices and sweets every weekend I go for Ice cream hot dogs bread bread bread cakes sunflower seeds to name a few.....I start January 6 and was so excited again....yesterday my son had tried to kill himself with the ends to one ends of keeping my sanity....While driving my bus..I go down my same street and found police at least 20 fire department and ambulance as I drove by I had no idea it was my son who was injured....kept on getting phone calls but could not answer because of my job and it being dangerous to drive with a cell phone....it was the police and they said my son has been injured everything jumped inside my mind....He has lost a lot of blood and he was credical...Food Choice felt sick to my stomach and afraid. he was going to die ..He had to go to surgery because of his blood lost oh God I sure did not want to lose my son..my only son.....But he is stable And he going to be ok...And at 12 am I woke up and had hot tea and 2 pieces of toast but woke up this moring with a growling I'm hungry feeling in my stomach ate 2 more toast....but I don't want to use stress for a moment of defeat...going to the gym with my daughter...This is the most important diet to me in a long time and I intend  to stay with it..no matter what happens.God has got my back...All day everyday.

Week Two No Referal For a Second Opinion
on April 17, 2012 6:00 pm
 I E-mail my doctor for the 3rd time...No response....I guess you have to almost try to hurt yourself  to get what you want....When I was 22 years old I married a man on rebound because The man I was going to marry was too young..And he did not want to be tied down..I bet if he could see in a Chrystal ball we would of been married..But I married someone who I liked..But I was fat...And he made remarks of my fatness...I was still in love with the other man...And I did get a divorce..Was finally going to get married to the man I have always wanted..But my family stayed in the way.....But to get back to the man I married he convinced me to have gastric bypass surgery the old kind.....Staple your stomach.....It was an open surgery...I stayed there for 2 weeks mostly liquids.....When I got release I asked  The Doctor what could I eat..He said anything i want.....It failed of course and he would not go back in...He made it sure I heard him...It was his faults it failed no information...Today its different so many surgeon's have gone beyond and has help overweight people live better and happy lives...By having that surgery 30+years....did everything right......Doom No surgery..why?/ The reason is the risks.He said he likes a challenge ..There are risks everyday......Oh God I really want this.....I'm so very unhappy...

I'm not giving up.

  This past few months thinking about letting go.To my Life and my future plans.Life is too short...............a Friend of mind on facebook said Edna there are different ways of losing weight.I know that.......and done that......................I was like a little child waiting for Santa to bring me a brand new baby doll.............But truly never came that Christmas.I'm set on maybe to appeal write a grievous.or hope on a doctor who might make all my dreams come true.................she also said that god did not want me to have the surgery.....I know he did'nt because the doctor was not qualified to give me a revision..........there is no...experience he has.only a few lap/band and gastric bypass.with a revision he never does......................he mention also that he likes a challenge.but it was life and death..if only he was honest in the beginning.I may of found someone else.But he had to lie to his firm.that i would fail this surgery.because I had no desire too Because I was not a candidate.You see I was a woman that smoked cigarettes one after another........who stopped cold turkey.Because I wanted a new body.But All I asked for was help.Mostly all my co/worker's who had gastric bypass went back to smoking.......after i quit.2years will never go back.But I was denied the surgeryI'm The fat lady that people talk about on the street.The fat lady who has a hard time to get into a restraunt booth.The fat lady who crys herself to sleep every night.the fat lady who want a real man to hold her at night.the fat lady who thinks she is worthless and alone.the fat lady who has never really lived.who was deined  gastric bypass revision Because the doctor had no experence And now that fat lady wants to live one more time...........Because I asked for help I might of found a doctor.Its up to my insurance.
