Sometimes It's Good To Be A Loser!
Jan 22, 2012
Well 2 months post op and I'm down 60lbs so far. 
I weigh 353 at the current time...I don't remember the last time I weighed this; its been at least 5 years. I feel great, still testing out different foods to see what I can handle and I'm good w/ everything except hamburger meat. I think my size rite now is a 24, thats what size pants I found that fit perfectly. Trying to exercise everyday, but not quite all the way there yet.
How is Thin Going to Feel?
Nov 04, 2011
Well my VSG surgery is about a week away, I start my liquid diet in one more day and then I'm off to Texas. I'm getting a little anxious though; not about the surgery but about how its gonna feel not being a super morbidly obese person anymore. I have never been thin and I think it may be a shock....the lowest weight I can remember me being was 175lbs when I was in the 7th grade. I'm not even sure what my exact current weight is due to me not being able to locate a decent scale but I have a roundabout number....405lbs. OMG 
. Thats a lot! I know I want this more than I have ever wanted anything and I can do it, but how is it gonna feel? Guess I'll find out soon.

Mixed Emotions!
Nov 01, 2011
So its two weeks before surgery and most of my family has been told whether I wanted them to know or not. Anyways I am getting mixed emotions from all of them; some act like whatever nobody cares and then some are acting like I'm doing this for vanity purposes. I mean really, I didn't tell anyone this for sympathy or anything. I feel some haters hating. 
Thanx for the support haters.

Shot Down AGAIN!!!
Oct 10, 2011
Well I found out today that Dr. Webber will not approve me for the surgery b/c I have no insurance....great shot down again. I am approved however in Mexico and could have the bypass done instead of the sleeve like I have wanted to get but my Family doesn't want me going out of the states. Wonderful. It just looks like this will never happen for me. I feel so heartbroken and hurt I can't do anything but cry. I gotta figure something out though....but what?

playing the waiting game
Oct 08, 2011
I have been in the process for the past 4 years of setting up my bariatric surgery and now it is so close to actually happening its kinda freakin me out. But rite now I'm just playing the waiting game. Waiting for the nutritionist to call me and give me my pre-op liquid diet....yay 
..lol jk, but I am waiting on the diet plan. I am supposed to be getting a call tomorrow from her and then it's up to me. Dr. Webber says I have to lose 30lbs before he will approve me for surgery; well get ready Doc cause I'm gonna get approved cause I'm losing those 30lbs in the next few weeks. I'll be Michigan bound in a month!
