Journey!!

Jan 17, 2008

   It was a year or so ago that i started to think about Weight Loss Surgery.  I first thought it was a drastic thing to do, so i just left the idea but i kept on gaining the weight, 6 months later i couldn't look at myself in a mirror without thinking how awful i looked.  i decide to go to a seminar and at the seminar a meet  Khaliah Ali, and i got all my hopes up once again. 

Next day i had an appointment at Advance Laparoscopic Surgeons in Florham Park with Dr. Bertha and i was a great experience, all i was waiting was the insurance to approve the surgery, everyone knows that is the difficult part.

Everything seemed to go well until a phone call came thru, it was the insurance company, they needed me to go on a 6 months supervised diet.  can you believe this? i've been dieting all my life and i needed to do this for 6 more monts. THIS IS RIDICULOUS!!!

All my hope were gone. I prayed to GOD for strenght, but always in mind was the GOD scripture that says "...be still and know that  I am GOD".  I was willing to go for the 6 months diet, so my surgery that was scheduled for 1/7/2008 was cancelled. But i knew that GOD had other plans for me, so i prayed and prayed and waited. I was about to start my diet when "Carla" (you are the best girl) from Dr. Bertha's office called and said that my case was re-evaluated and that my surgery was approved, this happened on 1/14/2008. GOD is good, because when you take care of GOD things, he will take care of yours.

My surgery is schedule for 2/4/2008 and i'm super nervous and super happy. GOD has given me the opportunity to be a new woman inside and out. Praise the Lord.
