I have one more day before surgery. I am anxious, excited and somewhat terrified. I keep thinking that I will be the one and only person that this surgery doesn't work for. I am in week two of my liquid diet and still struggling with my head hunger. You know, habits are extremely hard to break. I was hoping to have lost at least ten more pounds but so far I am at 238. Not bad..... not bad.... but this is usually the point in my diet when I give up because I feel like my body goes into starvation mode and does a standstill instead of continuing to lose.
This will not defeat me. I believe that I am already victorious. The Lord spoke to me last week while a was preparing a message for a program at my church. He let me know that he still performs miracles and he still answers prayers but sometimes he is waiting for us to pour out our worries, anxieties and stress to him and he will perform a miracle on our marriage, health, finances, children, jobs and whatever our needs are. We have to trust him enough to let go and act in faith and he will turn our water into wine and be like a well springing up in our soul.
I thank God for his faithfulness and for still being the same prayer answering God.

Great, Great, Great News. I received my approval letter from my insurance company. I can now schedule surgery on 8/1 when the center contacts me with the available dates. I am so grateful to God for this tremendous blessing. This is such an awesome opportunity to be able to change my life with one surgery. I am Sooooooo looking forward to shopping in "regular" stores again and seeing someone familiar again in the mirror. I am trying to not count down the days until they contact me and focus on losing more weight before surgery. My personal goal is to be at 230 when I go in the hospital.
