My story? Wow how hard is it to talk just about my self. Ok lets see…… I’m 33 years old and last year was told I had type 2 diabetes. At that point my primary said that WLS would be best for me. My mother had had it a year before and it was proving to be a wonderful tool for her. But I was not ready, looking back now I needed to begin the presses. Well, we all have our own path and time for everything. Anyway, the year passed and my health became a daily problem and after a trip to the ER for Very High Blood Pressure and sugar levels that I am embarrassed I let get so high. I decided it was time. Time to get healthy , time to live, time to love me like I have not in a long time. So that’s what I am doing. I know this is going to be a hard and long road but I am sooo glad to be on it and not under it. In just five days I go back to my Dr. to talk about all my test results and hopefully a date. I’m nerves, exited and full of motivation. I have much support and have worked very hard to lose 10 pounds from the first appointment I had with Dr. Sax, only a short time ago. That’s some of my story . More to come.
