May 22, 2012
I am not going to get on you gals/guys nerves posting every week about how close to surgery I am although it has been killing me not to. I am so happy that I am almost there. I still have some last appointments before surgery. I have an appointment on the 23rd for the dietician class then on June the 11th for my pre op and my fitness class and then 10 days later I will be havig surgery. My surgery is scheduled for June the 22nd @ 1pm I have to be at the hospital at 10am. You know what else I am not so scared of my pre surgical diet anymore I just want it all over with because I am excited to start my new life. I never seen myself making it this far because I am not a patient person, but I am and I worked my booty off getting here. Cant wait till I am on the losers bench with all the post op people.

May 05, 2012
GUESS WHAT!!!....... Ok well I was in a funk for a long time because of what was going on with my paper work. I thought I would go out with some friends tonight to get my mind off of it. Well today I got my letter in the mail saying that I was approved for surgery!!!! HELL YA!!!!!
The wait
Apr 27, 2012
omg they make u jump through 1000 hoops to make u wait for a approval this is so unfair I been calling everyday to see if I have an approval I dont like waiting and I am very impatient and to know all the things that I have done to get to where I am now. I remember when my doctor brought bariatric surgery to my attention a year and a half ago. I never thought that I was going to make it all the way thru this process. Now 9 months 2 pulmonary appts 1 cardiogy appointment 1 stress test 1 psych eval 2 support group meetings 1 consutation with the surgeon and dietician and blood work I am almost done. This has been a long process and I am not going to give up now! I just cant wait till the day that I get that call so that my life new life can begin. I am so read for it all I have already prepare everything including my life style so that I can be ready for surgery. Well before I go on and on and on I am going to end this blog lol
