ok today makes 5 weeks to go.... just finished riding my stationary 3.5 miles... and weighed in at 294. I will try adding in another work out when i get home depending on this knee of mine. BF and I think it will need to be re-scoped after my weight loss, but then again hopefully the weight loss will alleviate the pressure I have above the knee cap... who knows... i just know i pop like a balloon every few minutes.... i definitely had a cadence going with the bike this morning.. *lol* will journal this progress as I am 2 weeks and 3 days from my pre-op and I want to show that I am committed to this lifestyle and am capable of this. Will be calling the nut this morning as work allows to talk about my diet....to make sure i am not taking in too much of anything or maybe not enough....

Ok, today I spoke with Patti C and all the dates are set. Doc appt and pre-surgery seminar is Feb14th, happy Valentines to me!! Liquid fast begins February 18th, Pre-reg for hospiatl is Feb 20th, bloodwork appt is Feb 25th and surgery is a 10 am arrival for a noon slice and dice on March 3rd!!! I am not sure if I have ever met someone as excited as me to be cut open and re-arranged!!! lol

Last night however, was a bit scared, have read some not so fun stories from the board and was a little freaked out.. for lack of better terms.....

I emailed my DBF the information and he emailed back.. ok now i am a little scared... lol..... so we have both had our moments and are back on track!!

My DD however, thinks i am doing this for vanities sake. she is 19 and just doesnt want to talk about mom's health issues cuz as she states, you are going to live forever. She refuses to talk about my will or anything. So, its hard to know that She is not supportive in the way I would like for her to be, and am chalking it up to the fact that she is just scared....

Co-workers are very supportive as well... so thats great... I have not told my family tho, meaning parents aunts uncles etc...... will tell them after.. but have written letters to everyone that wont understand if the 'what if' happens.

I have a membership at curves and have been riding my bike so am really hoping to loose some weight before i see the doc on the 14th, dont want anything standing in the way of me having the surgery and a last minute cancel due to not having lost weight..... sooooo

ok.. enough rants for the day... :) just wanted to get that all written down before i forgot..... 36 days 21.5 hours.... not that i am counting!!! lol

Ok, My info was submitted to the insurance company the first week of January.... and then just this past 10th, I got the approval!!!!!! and just today the 17th I got my date!!!!!! March 3rd here I come!!!! I will keep udating as plan on keeping a scrap book of photos!! I am on my way to better health, a better life and a better everything!!!!
