Hana K.
Hi there. My name is Hana and at 31 years old I've finally had enough. I've spent my entire life fighting my weight, fighting myself. And I'm tired of fighting and getting no where.
My entire adult life has been spent on a diet of some sort. Some fad, some proven but nothing really working or having lasting effects. Maybe I wasn't ready... but I am now. Being diagnosed with diabetes, high cholesterol and a fatty liver a little over a month ago was the kick in the behind that I think I needed. Especially after seeing my dad struggle and lose his leg to diabetic complications.
So I've started this journey. I've got a surgeon that I trust and whom I like. I'm working on losing weight now and getting all my 6 months of appointments and pre-op testing done. I'm hoping that come February/March, my insurance company will be on board and I will have had my surgery, the sleeve (VSG). *Fingers crossed*
Most of my journey has been too bottled up in myself. I tend to hide behind a false confidence and laughs. I think that by using this site, even if no one reads it, it'll help me through the next year and beyond.
So let's kick the tires and light the fires, yeah?
