Hey, so far I've had my cardio and pulmonary appts, but they haven't told me nothing yet. I will meet with my pcp next week for some answers. I really didn't think it was going to be so challanging. I thought I'd just see these docs and they'd say yeah your ok, go have you surgery. But I can appreciate the extensive details they are going to just to make sure everything will be ok. However I do have a tiny hiatel hernia. I was told one way to get this is laying down too soon after eating.  Has anyone heard of that before or does anyone know the effects it will have with the RNY?

Hey buddies,

I going for my second round of clearances starting tomorrow.  Yeah, tomorrow I have my cardio clearances. I know everything will go well. My appts are actually stretech from tomorrow through Feb 18. I will try to move them closer if anyone cancels.
I realize some people meet with the surgeons office then they go for the clearances, but for me I go for the clearances first before I get to actully have the consult with the surgeons office. So far my only consult has been with my pcp. I did meet the surgeon however and his seminar.  
Keep me in your prayers.

Hey Everyone,

Thought I say a few words. So I am still waiting for my special day. I have all of my clearance appointments rescheduled now (for the second time). Its going to work out this time, I just know it...... Meanwhile, I am not sitting idol. I have began walking up and down the hills in my neighborhood. I'm a bit sore in my knees and hips.  My goal is to walk Stone Mountain without stopping but I have a long ways to go for that. I'm shooting for March/ April. No more drinking when I eat. I only drink water and have started on my vitamins. But I'll be glad when I can get of of all these other meds. Trying to stay in the kitchen and not in front of the TV to eat. Small changes like that until I get my WLS.  Trying to learn all I can about the protein shakes, what to and what not to eat. Anyone have any ideas of things I can be doing meanwhile just let me know. I added my motivation music today. Enjoy......

God is Good!

Hey Everyone,

Waiting on all of my clearances and surgery approval seems to be the first test of determination in this.  But guess what I AM DETERMINED!   I have had a few setbacks with my insurance and now I have to start the clearance process all over again, because the clearances expired.  Determination is the key.  I begin my clearances again the end of Jan 09, but they are all scheduled within an 9 day period.  Meanwhile, I will continue to enjoy encouraging and being encouraged by others.  This website is really great.  I am taking authority over this situation with my approval, and claiming victory in the name of Jesus.  This wls is mine, what God has for me is for me. Just watch out ya'll, pretty soon you'll be looking at a skinnier and healthier me.........
