My journey started about two years ago, or more accurate that's when I first started thinking about WLS. I had gone to a few seminars and was obsessed thinking about it for months but I convinced myself I could do it on my own. So, I'd go to the gym and renewed my 24 Hour Fitness membership. I would lose 10lbs and be excited than I'd hurt my back and be down for the count and gain 20lbs. It was a viscous cycle. I finally decided to take this decision and make it real. I wanted to take m life back again. This wasn't a decision that I came to lightly.
I am fortunate to live close to The Davis Clinic. I didn't know a lot about them until I went to one of their seminars. Then I did some research on them after I got back and I couldn't believe how amazing these Dr's. are. This was the first time I felt comfortable and "right" about my decision. If there was anyone I was going to let perform this surgery on me, it was going to be them. I attended their seminar in October, than a week later I already had a consultation. My insurance required two nutritional visits (plus the consultation) and a psych evaluation. By the 2nd week of December I was approved!! I couldn't believe how easy it all was. I was approved with in 24 hours.
So, here I am and here is where my real journey begins. I am scheduled for surgery on February 8th, 2011. I have already lost 20lbs from the liquid diet and feeling confident and excited for this change in my life. I know my reasons for doing this are solid and true. I am ready to be show on the outside how I feel on the inside.
