Surgeon Testimonial

Fred Simon M.D.
As of today 8/22/06 I am still pre-op, I anticipate completing the required work (Pulmonology, Cardiology, Mental Health Specialist etc) by the end of this week...rnrnPrior to meeting Dr. Fred Simon, I was told that he had a \"short\" personality. I entered his office expecting him to be cold and impersonal. Dr. Simon was with an assistant on my inital meeting and he was rather nice. I found that at this time he was \"doctorly\" we did not become best of friends but I am confident that his medical knowledge is what I am looking for in a surgeon. Dr. Simon has a nurse named Patricia who is a guru with assisting you with this life choice. I felt comfortable with his ENTIRE staff. rn

I believe that I am like EVERYONE else on this site... Always a "thick" plus-sized princess, just never consumed with any particular weight issues. I decided to make changes in my life, I am excited about this new journey! I cannot wait to see how much of a change this decission will impact my life and my family.  I researched this for about 5 years. I selected my physcian, I am ready to move forward. I have finally found a staff that will assist me with the overall process. I am confident in their ability and I am looking forward to beginning this life change with them.

OH No here we go....

Word to the wise.....DO NOT LEAVE THE OH Family.....so, what had happened was.....I got comfortable.  Look at my post three years since I've been "home" really????? Well I have as they say "black-slid" TREMENDOUSLY so I am now buckling down and back to the basics. 

I gained wait - A LOT - and know I am experiencing all of my ORIGINAL problems.  Now with me being in an Asthma downfall I am using daily prednisone - 10 mg - therefore weight, weight and more weight.  I've can consume more food than I should - I went to the doctor and my pouch is intact therefore its not "him" it's me.....

What I can tell you is my mentality is correct now so I am SLOWLY getting back to basics; something as simple as I do not drink water.  I can eat anything (ANYTHING) so I am mentally blocking MOST things.....

If any support person is in the Orlando/Clermont area I'd love a support loser to make me be accountable....

I will be a loser again - LOVE Y'all

October 6, 2009 - Well guys, truth be told I currently weigh 215 - and the excuse is... Nasal Polyps AGAIN.  In an attempt to control my Asthma outbreaks I have been taking prednisone DAILY since March or so (when the original surgery was scheduled)  The doctor prescribed 10 mg per day.... SO I have had the opportunity to GAIN 45 pounds or so....

I went onto bariatric advantage and purchased some bariatric meals.  I plan on re-training my tool and getting back on track... Wish me luck, my surgery was rescheduled for Friday October 9th... I will be able to get OFF of this prednisone... I need ya'll's help so hit me up and keep me in your prayers.... in an attempt to have my surgery before my lungs collapsed and I was unable to go forward - hence the overdose on the predinsone....

Oh Well -

39 and holding
on September 2, 2009 6:52 pm
September 2, 2009 - Well tomorrow is my 39th birthday... I currently weigh 206... OH NO!!@!  I am going on LIQUIDS.....  I ordered some meal replacements from Bariatric Advantage and started back going to get my B-12 shots....  

MESSAGE TO ALL - don't get SO COMFORTABLE....  I stopped tracking my meals and became comfortable with my tool... NOW UNDER MUCH DURESS.... I am re-training myself.  Guess what even though I eat small portions, it is o.k. to NOT eat everything.  It's o.k. to LEAVE food on your plate. 

I bought two large boxes of Saran Wrap - Ms. Teena, I started last night.... interesting...

What's the plan?  60 pounds or BUST.   No time line required just a goal...   Believe it or not I can feel the difference on the extra weight... yes it has been THREE (3) years since I Had RNY I've managed to regain a total of 31 pound BUT these extra pounds FEEL LIKE HELL.... I will survive I am not discouraged just trying to re-train my mind....
