Never thought I'd even consider this... now I'm 3 weeks away

Feb 24, 2013

I am one who never thought I would consider WLS.  Honestly until about a year ago, I always felt that I looked smaller than I am.  SOOO not the case, as soon as I see myself in pictures I want to vomit!  Last June I was watching a show on Discover Health about people who had had weight loss surgery.  Funny part is, the next day, one of my employees started talking to me about how she was starting to consider it.  I think once I knew that someone else was doing it that I knew that it was OK, for me to think about.  I started my 6 months of supervised diet in July, then FINALLY mid-late January this year got my approval from insurance.  I finally got my date set last week for March 19th.  I'm so excited, anxious, scared but I know that I need to do this for me.  I also got engaged on Decmber 1st of 2012 so I've really been wondering WHAT am I going to look like in a wedding dress?  I CAN'T wait to have surgery and get alot of this extra weight off and try on wedding dresses.  Ready for my new me!
