OK so day 5 OPTI-fabulous and 6 pounds less.

Feb 04, 2011

I feel water logged though.  I keep loading in the fliuds...however, I think it is helping because I am not having any cravings!!!   I had a headache one night on about day 2 but nothing since then.   I feel great and energized and healthy!  Who knew...LMAO......So I have 9 days left of this and then 2 of no shake and then whammo!  Surgery!    I am soo excited to start this new chapter of my life!!!!    I feel like I have been waiting forever....even though it's only been almost 7 months...  I just  feel like I am ready to begin again and the world is (to coin a phrase) "my oyster".  My kids have noticed the weight I lost already in my face...   My son keeps asking where my chubby cheeky went!  LOL   I tell him that mommy gave them a few lifetimes off!

oh the sorrows of the long WAIT!

Jan 24, 2011

SO I am excited because I am done with the surgeons appt and my clas and everything else I can think of but did I jump the gun.  Did I really want to be done with all of that stuff???  Cause here I sit now anxious and excited and no date!   

OH I pray for a call with a date every other minute...  Will it happen?  Is she calling me??  Will I ever be at that point. 

I know it is coming....I know it will go by quicker then I could imagine....but that doesn't slow the feelings of want and desire for someone to call me a give me a date for which I will begin my new life?

LMAO....its part of the human condition...we want more and we want it now...

So here I sit biting my toungue because I know that this can't go on forever...the impatience will subside and this moment.....well this moment too shall pass....lol

YAAAAAAAHHH!!!!

So I meet with the surgeon tomorrow!   I am feeling really optimistic and positive. 
I am still on my own careful diet and tracking everything I can.  And really looking forward to it.
I took a fellow OHer's advice and called Krista about my education class as well.  And she told me I was set up for the 20th to go to my class and I would get the details at my surgeons appt.
I know I am being a little premature but I am excited and although I know that the sugeries are apparently not happening until March, I still have my fingers crossed that it will go by quick if thats the case or that I will luck out and get an earlier date.
Tomorrow can bring you the world, if you wake up ready for it.~!

HEre goes nothing

Dec 20, 2010

OK, so it was suggested that I blog and I guess it isnt a half bad idea.  
First I will tell you a little about myself.  I am 28 and married with 3 children.  I have been overweight pretty much my entire life and I have finally taken the steps to have this corrected.  I am tired if being held back from doing the things I know I can do but struggle with or I am embarrassed to try.  I want to be here for my children and my husband and I have decided that the only way to ensure that is to do anything within my power.

I am very excited about this process and nervous.  I see the surgeon on the 11th of January and I guess will get my surgery date after that.  It is all very overwhelming though.  I am so thank ful I found this site.  
I have lost about 25 lbs now from my starting weight and still think I can lose a few more before my surgeons date.  Fingers crossed.
