I finally have my date... July 23rd couldn't come any faster.. After trying to have this surgery 2 yrs ago, its finally gonna happen  for me. All i want is a healthy life. that's all i ever wanted for myself and now this gives me the opportunity to have it. All I can do is put it in gods hands and pray that everything goes good. I am very excited yet very nervous I am as what they called me today a Rookie.. I've never had any type of surgery, I don't know if I have a high tolerance for pain. All I can say is I am very happy and excited this is happening.

So here I am at it again, Monday Oct 14, 2013 I had my first pre-op appointment all over again.It's a little stressful to have to go through this shit over again, But hey I'm willing to do it if it means a healthier life. My first time trying to have WLS I went all the way and all I had to do was sent all my info and wait for a date. Things didn't work my way due to work and I decided not to go through with it. 2nd time  I went to 2 seminars and then couldn't start my per-op process cuz I hadn't received my insurance from my job. When I did get it, It was to late to start the pre-op process,and try to have surgery in the summer. Which is what I'm doing now, I get paid even if I'm not working in the summer so I will be able to not work the summer still get paid and have my surgery. That is the plan. Hope my 3rd time is a charm

Wish me LUCK!!

Hi who ever is still out there and reading these blog's ...

So its been over a yr since my last post and unfortunately I never had wls. Of course I'm upset, it has been something I've been looking forward to for over 3 yrs and still nothing. In my last blog I mention the summer job I had as a teacher's aide for a visually impaired school. Good news on that is I got hired to work the school yr and I made a yr there on June 5. I Love this job and honestly I truly do believe that if I didn't take the job and gone ahead with the surgery. I wouldn't be where I am right now when it come to my career. So it's a bitter sweet feeling. I gave up the surgery for the job. Yes my health means everything to me and Yes at times I do regret my decision because it has been hard to try and maintain my weight and to get surgery again but I wouldn't change my decision for the world. I know my day will come. With that being said in October I will be starting all over  hopefully 3rd times a charm!!! I am praying to God this goes my way. I really want this . Both my sister got is done, and the sad part is I was the one who started this journey first. My older sister Damaris had the gastric bypass 3 yrs ago and my baby sister Michelle had the sleeve last yr Dec 26. Both successful and they both feel amazing and love the decision they had made. I want that soooo bad. as hard as I have been trying to either lose or maintain. its not enough, no matter how hard I try. So fingers crossed, prayers sent up to the big man upstairs that this happens for me
