Christmas Eve 2008

Dec 24, 2008

Well it's Christmas Eve and I have so much to be happy for.  Loving family.  Wonderful son who I adore and who adores me.  Great career and a job I love. 

Yet here I am dreading having to go visit everyone tonight.  I'm the largest I've ever been and I can't stand it another day.  I was approved for surgery months ago.   I started this journey in May of 2008 and  did everything they wanted right away and had been using my cpap.  I had originally hoped to have had my surgery this past summer but it just wasn't meant to be.  I went to my manager in October to let them know I had been approved and we decided on January which isn't totally the end of the world.  Just a couple months longer to feel like a big slob. 

I keep reading all the blogs and looking at all the before and afters and I just can't wait to begin my after.  I've been testing the protein shakes and so far the AES brand and Muscle Milk aren't too bad.  I've got a few more I'd like to try before surgery. 

My PAT's are scheduled for 1/7/08 and my surgery is scheduled for 1/22/08.  I'm sure with the holidays the time will fly by.  Well this is a short first blog but it is after all Christmas Eve.  Happy Holidays to all!
