The Fat Lady Sang Today

  Did you ever notice that if you are "Big" and you go to resturant and order a Coke/Pepsi the waiter/waitress will throw in, "Diet right?". Um , NO. If I wanted a diet I would have said Diet when ordering. Or they will bring you a refill and they will just assume your drinking Diet. I have never nor will I ever drink diet soda. This happened to me not once, not twice, but 3 times today. Im so glad that soon I wont have to live throught those moments ever again.

Today was my last meal as a "Fat Lady".

I am 30 yrs old, I weigh 262lbs and will undergo Gastric Bypass on March 16th. My liquid diet starts tomorrow and I couldnt be happier. I know, sick...twisted that I would be excited to be on a liquid diet for 2wks, but I know what the end result will be and that alone gives me strength. It will be tough but I know I can do it!

I will attempt to blog as best as I can this journey so that maybe someone else out there in the blogging world will find inspiration in me as I did from Googling so many of you WLS people out there. Or maybe the people who know me will better understand what I am going through. I am not the type of person who likes to have conversations for hours about this and I know a lot of people really dont want to hear about it. Therefore I will post it here and if anyone wnats to know, it will be here for them.

Wish me luck!
