I'm on my liquid diet now. Kinda cheated the first 2 days. I had a shake for breakfast and a shake for lunch and then a small meal for dinner. As of today its liquid and nonfat yougurt  only. Suffering from head hunger. I really don't like the shakes. I think i'll try mixing it with yogurt for supper. I just can't stand the smell of whey. I also have the notorious withdrawl headache. On a positive note at 2.5 days I have lost 7 lbs. Thats amazing. And worth the awful taste.

So I'm nervous and excited and I just want the days to go by really quickly.
I think we are going to go camping for a couple days hopefully it will distract me.

I Got Approved

YEAH!!! I have been trying to get the money together for months to go to Dr Joya in Mexico and have VSG wls surgery. I finally got approved and the money will be in my account in 2 weeks. Here I come Mexico.

I am scared and excited and anxious and so many other emotions at the moment. I never really believed it would happened. I figured the bank would turn me down or my husband would fight me or our car would die and I'd never be able to afford to do this. Now it feels real. I'm finally moving forward. I have the money. My husband and children are supportive. have a friend who will watch my kids and dogs, and a back up in place for both. Its really going to happen and I am going to get healthy again.

Why did I do that????

Jun 16, 2008

So I decided today was the day to take my measurements after all the scale isnn't everything.  Why did I start my day off this way? I must have been in denial. I really had no idea my waist was that big. Great way to start the day. Here goes

CHEST.....46"
WAIST......46.5"
HIPS.........47"
THIGH......27.5"
BICEP......13"


The really sad part is 6 yrs ago my waist was only 3" bigger than my thigh. Thats what really shocked me. Okay enough of the complaining, time to get motivated and start making some changes. Last wk I set getting all my water as a goal. So far so good. This week I am going to start taking vitamins and I have started walking my 3 dogs everyday. I know water, vitamins and exercise are going to be crucial to my health and sucess after surgery so I'm trying to make them habits now. 
WISH ME LUCK.
POSITIVE THOUGHTS TO EVERYONE.

Feeling Positive

Jun 07, 2008

So I have most definitely decided on VSG. My 

husband always seemed a little iffy about the 

band, but not only has he decided to back VSG 

100% he wants to do it himself. That’s so 

great he's been struggling with his weight for 

years. He was released medically from the 

military because of a deteriorated disc in his spine

 and an ankle injury. Loosing weight would 

be such and amazing gift for him. It will take so 

much pressure off his back. I think the plan 

is to have the surgeries about six months apart.

 So now we just have to make sure we prepare 

financially for his surgery too. Thank God for the

 good Dr's in Mexico without them we would 

never be able to do this

Change of heart

Jun 04, 2008

I have be lurking and researching for months. I was planning on being banded but the more I read about the struggles with the band and exspecially for People with PCOS the more nervous I became. I've decided the VSG seems like the better route for me. My husband is good with it. He likes me not having a foriegn body in me. Now I'm researching a different DR, because Dr kuri doesn't do enough VSG to make me comfortable. Wish me luck.
