be the best me I possibly can be

Sometime in mid June of this year I will be having Open Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass. Today the surgeon said that I am an excellent candidate, my insurance company should give me absolutely no problems, and they will call me on May 16th to schedule the actual date. The surgery will be done at Sisters Hospital on a Friday.



All that's left is my meeting with the nutritionist and exercise specialist, and some pre-op testing. I have been researching this since 2003, and now it's actually happening. I sat in the surgeons office parking lot crying hysterically for a good 30 minutes before I drove home, happy tears though, which is new for me.



This time next year I could be 150 lbs lighter and 150 times happier :)
