So Fast
Dec 01, 2006
All in all this has gone quickly - since October at least. I mean the year of tracking was long (it passed anyhow!) but since then everything has MOVED.
I have slowly started telling my friends that the date is due- and they are excited for me. I tell my god-parents on Sunday, which from previous experience will be hard but all in all this is for me, and since they love me I know I will have their support.
Thanks

He was patient and accomodating!
I don't like the lopressor- it makes me tired and short on breath. Why do the side affects kick in before the cure? My sciatica is back so my hips ache, stupid nerve.
I can't wait for this surgery! No more gall bladder pain, no more GERD, no more lopressor, no more excess weight. I know others are nervous but i AM READY!~
Change of Date!
Nov 29, 2006
Yea my intake of air sucks too- back to that horrid CPAP machine- pffft!
So my date is the 7th. I thought we were going for the 29th- nope! 7th it is. I think my hubby is in more shock but to his credit he is focusing on my needs.
On the 6th go for my nutrition class and on the 7th I go in.
I'm pretty excited about this!
Sisters
Nov 27, 2006
Anyhow she mentioned going shopping together after I have reached and maintained my goal. It struck me just how awesome that would be to be able to go shopping with my sisters again. MInd you all of my sisters are small (one body sculpts, one is a personal trainer and one is just petite!)
It will be nice not to be the fat sibling.
The start of it
Nov 25, 2006
I got the papers for my PAT. Long papers to fill out- which I think I have filled out before! I wonder if I should carry this info on my jump drive like my resume??
Filled them out and I go on Wed for the testing- which is cool except the time because it starts at noon I have to miss the nutrition class that day and push it back a week.
I am still waffling with the surgery date- my gall bladder acted up 3 times in one week so I whined and now they want to get me in ASAP. However my original date of 12-20 would still work the best. Maybe I'll just let them think me crazy and stick to that date. They should know people will say almost anything during a gall bladder attack!
Grandma is in the hospital with congestive heart failure- so aniexty is at an all time high (did I forget to mention I have finals coming up, a presentation, work full time, have a 3 year old- oh right who has his own extra cirricular activities twice a week and then usualy house up keep and that marriage relationship to work with :) So I painted my upstairs altar shelves to work through some stress- which again is manifesting itself through a few panic attacks here and there, which I have controlled through deep breathing techniques (go hypnotherapy! never figured I would use my license on me more than others! ) and then of course my skin went back to hell! Thanks Dr. Gaffney for the chemicals to stop the madness!
So- I have decided 12-20 will just have to stick to work with my schedule and I'm good with that! My presentation will be over on Wednesday, as will my PAT and then just the countdown and enjoying Grandma for as long as she is here.
On the good note- I picked up Xan's picutres with the Thomas background- too damn cute for words!

Getting Started
Nov 19, 2006
Like so many, I think, my weight came as a surprise. I knew I was big but obese? I suppose that would have required looking- and I do mean really looking in a mirror and paying attention. When I did, all I did was cry.
I've fought the battle for years, but it got really bad when I hit 30. I fought as a kid, thinned out in time for high school, college I added a bit but it was never that bad.
When I finally realized it was really bad, I already was depressed about a lot of other things so it just piled on to the mess.
Now I have things back under control and I'm ready to move forward.
My date is December 20-however they are trying to get me in earlier- due to a porcelaine gall bladder. Porceline gall bladder means it's not just gall stones but that the walls are starting to harden and that pre-cancerous cells are forming.
I am excited about this new journey!
