About time!!

Jul 10, 2010

Well, it has been around four years since my last post and still no surgery for me. It is sad how our own needs seem to get put off.  I have done my research on bariatric surgery, observed friends who have had various procedures.  I have made my decision to move forward on my surgery.  I am registered for the new patient bariatric seminar at Centenial Medical Center in Nashville on Saturday July 17.  Since my last post I have managed to pack on around twenty more pounds from my sedimentary job. and lifestyle in general.  My high blood pressure is still there; now with alot of swelling of my feet and ankles on a daily basis.  I also have severe GERD which lead to several episodes of aspiration pneumonia last year until my doctor discovered what my problem actually was.  I am fifty years old now and can see my health in general going down the tubes all due to my obesity.  I am anxious to get approved for my surgery and to have it as soon a possible.  I am doing this primarily for health reasons,  but the weight loss will be great!  I hope to make friends on here that can help and support me along my journey and I hopefully can do the same for you.  I  am personallly very excited about the whole thing.
