My New Begining
posted on 10/16/10 3:06 pm
So I am 29 years old and have been over weight for most of my life. There was a period when I was a child where i was very skinny. cant remember those days. I have thought about weight loss surgery before and went to a couple of seminars. At the time my insurance would only cover the gastric bypass and I was not so sure that I was ready for all that. I continued to gain weight over the years. I tried several diets and they all worked at the beginning but gained back after a while. It was defiantly time to go back and revisit my options. I have a good friend that works for a bariatric surgeon and she was very helpful. From helping me get all my appointments together to getting me approved. I will thank her for this new journey that I am on to a healthier life style and cant wait to see what is to come.
 
I have been on a liquid diet for 12 days and it has been so hard. My family cooks every day and boy not being able to have food is hard. The liquid diet that i have been on restricts me to 5  items, slim fast, sugar free jello, sugar free Popsicles, water, and crystal light. The first few days were the worst! I really wanted some solid food and had a bit of a headache. Up until about 2 days ago the Jello was fine. I am not so tired of Jello that I dont think that I can have it again. I have lost about 16 lbs since I began my liquid diet so that is a win.

I began my journey at 336 and am now 319. I cant wait to see the results and will post again soon.
