Officially Approved!!!!!!!!!!!

Mar 01, 2012

I'm APPROVED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!, My surgeons M.A called me at 12:13 to give me the good news.They gave me a tentative date of 3-13-12 a few weeks ago pending that i was approve,Well that is my official day that i will be sleeved.I'm feeling very emotional right now,I feel like crying.My paper work was sent in on Tuesday and i was not expecting to get the call until sometime next week.I'm just so thankful,That i have this chance to become a smaller version of myself.Not only that i can finally get off my bp meds,I've been on bp meds since i was 17 and that was ten years ago.I thank god every day for this blessing.Aside from PCOS and High Blood pressure I'm as healthy as can be,I know that this is going to be a life changing moment for me.I'm ready because I've over weight for far too long,I remember being 15 years old and weighing 375.I think that's going to be my first goal,For a while i low self esteem when i was in 8Th and most of high school but all that changed once i got to college.I've always known that i was pretty and my family and friends kept telling me that i was,I know that i have an awesome personality and I'm fun to be around.I've never had a problem with going on date and having men hit on me,Although I'm a lesbian,That didnt stop them.The only issue for me has always been my weight and that's because i love to eat.My problem is not the diet and exercise is the portion sizes,I know that is all about to change and i welcome this change,I know that in the beginning its going to be hard but i know that with each passing day its going to get better.I know the type of person i am and do better when there is a plan for me to follow.So i will be following my dr instruction,If there is twerking that needs to be done i will do that as well.I've worked too hard to get to this point ,I know that the weight will not magically fall off and i have to do work.This is one time that im ready for the battle,I may not have won the war before but GODDDAMM im going to win it this time.
When i knew that i was really going to do this,I started calling myself "MISS NEWBODY" it might seem silly to other but if you think about it,It really makes sense.I'm about to embark on a journey that is going to give me a new body.So since last summer my friends have all been calling me that.At least the ones thats knows that im having surgery.At first i was very secretive of telling people that i was having WLS but then i realized that this is nothing for me to be ashamed of.I'm doing something to take control of my life.So pretty much most of my co-workers knows that im going on FMLA for five weeks,I was going to take the whole six weeks but i think that in five weeks i should be fine if not then i'll just have my DR put me out for another week or two.I was trying to find the perfect song to describe what im feeling right now but i dont think there is no perfect match.Anyway i want to thank all my new friends that i met because of the vsg board for all there support,I'm getting closer to the loser bench so save me a spot.
