My Journey to a healthy lifestyle

Nov 06, 2007

November 6th, 2007:

I am a 52 yr young woman, weighing 297 lbs, who's health is going down the tubes.  I have highblood pressure, diabeties, aches and pains all over the places and not very healthy at all.  Hoping that this surgery will get me back on track so that I can live a better quality of life.  Medicine is great to give you life, but not quality of life.  

I had just finished a 24-week class with Kaiser Fontana for preparation of the Gastric Bypass.  If was very good.  Discussed food, exercise, the emotional changes and how to cope with stressors of family, work and life in general.  When Crown's seminar and support group session and participated in Pacific's seminar and support group session.  And I have decided to go to Crown for the surgery.  Had all the blood work, EKG and gall bladder ultrasound on Oct. 11th, 2007.  Now I am waiting for a letter from Kaiser with my authorization number and a call from Crown.

I've purchased by vitamins and some protein drinks to try out and I am ready to go.  And that's all I have for now.
