Hi everyone,
So far it has been 7 days since my surgery. I am doing better than I thought I would be. I still have had no problems with vomiting but then again im still on clear liquids.

Anyway time to go need to get in my morning walk...bye for now.

About Me
Jan 30, 2008
My name is Angelique. I am 36 years old, a mother of 2 teenagers and wife of almost 18 years. I have been overweight most of my adult life...I am currently at my heaviest. I have started the process to have surgery 3 times. The first time my pc doctor was not supportive of the surgery so the insurance would not consider it. The second time (different pc) I started the process 2 things stopped me. First I was told by the dietician that I had to loose 10 % of my body weight...ha.ha.ha. if I could do that I would not need surgery I said. and second I just started a new job and probation time was a year, I did not feel comfortable asking for time off during that period so I just gave up....well I am on my third attempt. I have completed everthing the surgeon has asked me to do, and I have a surgery date scheduled for Feb 7th. I am so very nervous. I have about 112 pounds to loose. I hope that I am successful.
