Well its friday

May 22, 2009

I been working out at the gym afraid to know what I weight.  I been working out so much my legs and arms muscles hurt ha ha.  I'm stying focused and I realized I don't get hungry and I always end up getting sick or a stomach ache.  I have to make myself eat but I just eat a few crackers or broth.  I noticed that I love hot stuff not cold stuff.  My dad named me twiggy.  So that's what I call my pouch Ms Twiggy like the first model ever.  I'm loving it so much  It's Friday and I ready to get busy going to the nail shop and my I go to the shopping stores to walk and exercise but I always end up buying something ha ha.  I love this thank you for your support and for the Lord bringing me through.  THANK YOU JESUS just wanted to drop a few lines.  Thank you all

Boy I have been busy since surgery

May 16, 2009

Well  thank you Jesus all of you  for the support and prayers I MADE IT!!!  I had my surgery  May 5,2009 at 835am.  My mom and my fiance was there with me and I showed out.  When I was in the OR and saw all the staff around me taking care of me I got calm I was very nervous.  My doctor came Dr. Robert Davis and I told him one last time to make my stomach the size of a dime and he laugh at me and said ok.  I had so much fun then I was trying to be nosy and look around and then came the mask to sleep.  When I got to recovery I was so thirsty and the nurse came over to give me some ice chips I tried to eat the whole cup.  I'ts funny now when I think back and then I looked for the time and it was 11:15am.  They were trying to talk to me but after being with all the staff for all those hours then being put to sleep I wanted to see some family faces.  So I requested to see my mom  and then I thought my fiance is out there.  So they brought them by real fast and then at 1145am they took me to my room.  I forgot to I had to be there at 600am and I got there at 615am the preped me and we prayed and they took me to the or at

My final pre op app.

Apr 27, 2009

Hello I'm back again!   I finally have kinda calmed down since my surgery date was made and all I been doing is praising the Lord.  I am truly blessed and thankful,  I feel a since of strength like no other time in my life and confident.  I went on Friday April 25,2209 for my X-Ray and Blood work and EKG.  I met with all the team the doctor the nurse that will be taking care of me and  I went and  found my room for the day of surgery.  Also the OR room where I will have the surgery and place where my family can wait and eat while I'm in surgery.  My whole family wants to come but my mommie is the only one coming I think?  Not really a 100% sure so.  I know I will pick her up on Sunday May 3rd or Monday May 4Th.  My brothers and my dad are having a fit to come and my aunt but its cool I will see them soon.  I have a alot planned for me and my mom to do when she gets here.  It feels like people are just coming out of the wood works.  I have spoken to both of my old college roommates since then and old friends from back home.  Well the liquid diet for 2 weeks suck and no smoking is hard but I'm being strong and Pray For Me.  God Bless

It feels so great to have a date.  I'm getting all my FM LA papers ready for work,  but I don't want to be out more than 2 weeks.  So I will handle my business so I will be covered with my JOB cause I need that.  I will see you all on the other side.   Thank You All for Your Support.  I will keep Ya Update and later add photos Peace     MAY GOD BLESS AND KEEP YOU SAFE      THANKS TO JESUS CHRIST MY LORD SAVIOR AND MY MOTHER WHO IS MY BACKBONE AND STRENGTH  MY FAMILY AND FRIENDS.  MY BOO FOR MAKING SURE I STICK TO AT  IT HOME  MY COWORKERS AND TO MY DOCTORS AND TEAM THE DAVIS CLINIC OUT OF HOUSTON TEXAS MY DOCTOR ROBERT DAVIS WHO SAID THERE IS A SKINNY WOMAN IN THERE JUST WAITING TO COME OUT !!!! LOL HA HA ....  TO OBESITY HELP.COM FOR BEEN A GREAT SUPPORT TEAM  AS WELL

I was APPROVED for my SURGERY

Apr 15, 2009

Hello everyone I was approved for my surgery and I shouted and praised the Lord Jesus Christ.  My momma and family are so excited also I lost 5 pounds!  I'm so happy My last visit with the Dr Davis he was kinda disappointed in me not losing any weight. I know Jesus would make a way just in a few days I promise on Monday April 13th 2009 I weighted myself and I had gained 4 pounds.  So I talked with the Lord my mommie and my coworkers that already have had a success with the surgery.  So I changed my diet and started eating by breakfast a protein shake and for a snack a small salad or celery and peanut better or lite ranch dressing and by dinner 1 bowel of special K cereal and 1 banana and for a snack Small bits of cheese.  Only if I got really hungry or i would eat a salad with more celery and peanut butter.  I was also walking for at least 30 minutes everyday after work.  I was taking the stairs and parking further in the parking lot and walking all the time after work in the grocery store is my favorite!   I will walking around the whole store 3 times and by the time I was through I was to tired to stay in line to buy the stuff.  Also this was all Monday April 13 2009 til Wed April 15 2009 so I had to be at the doctor at 9am.  So when I got there and got on the scale I asked Jesus to help me and I had lost 5 pounds I was in shock and amazed when Jesus answered me right away and I felt truly Blessed cause I knew if I didn't show some kind of progress my chances for surgery would be post pond til I showed effort.  The medical assistant came in and said I was approved and she said my chart was in the surgery side! I said well i saw the insurance calling me in the morning but I would be at work and so the doctor came in and said to me well lets set your surgery date and i started shouting and saying THANK YOU JESUS!!!!  I looked in the mirror and said to myself a new beginning for a better life and better health for me.  I know it takes hard work and sticking to the plan cause you can not lose weight with the surgery alone I understand and will work harder and stick to my faith and to my new diet I created from so many friends and family.  For more diet plans and tips and what I'm doing email me and I will let everyone know how I do before and after surgery.  THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR PRAYERS AND SUPPORT MAY GOD BLESS YOU ALL          PS.....  I will post my pictures of my before and after soon as I see some  Major results Ha Ha

My first entry March 17,2009

Mar 17, 2009

My first entry  I have taken some time to think about what I wanted my first entry to be!  Every ones information has been helpful to me and very informative as well.  I still have some question,  but I am very Blessed that I am going to have the gastric bypass Next Month in April.  Not sure the date,  but I'm in the last stages to be complete and CROSSING OVER TO THE OTHER SIDE.  I'm nervous as hell,  but ready  I never been a thin girl or even small -just big boned.  My mom thinks I'm not serious about it,  I don't now why, but she still supports me.  I can only prove to myself that I'm ready.  A few things do cross my mine that I struggle with and that is Every time I think about the surgery I get hungry and I have been battling myself for the last 3 weeks not to do that .  So what I've done is put fruit and water in its place when I feel the craving and I can't control it.  MY BIGGEST GOAL I NEED HELP WITH is my SMOKING!1  Which yes is a nasty habit and I have been told by family,friends, co workers and everyone that don't smoke to STOP NOW  even my psychologist told me in December to stop at least six week before my surgery so what is my problem?  Well I have not stopped and my surgery is soon.  So I have a prescription in my purse for Chant-ix and have not filled because there are to many side affects.  I'm afraid to take them,   but I have a solution nicotine patches.    I'm going to start this weekend!  with Jesus in to my right and my family to the left that's all I need to make it.    My surgery will be a SUCCESS.  WISH ME WELL !  I will make my entry  to keep you all posted.  PS I been in this since March 2007.  for my research psychologist and Nutritionist Meetings and most of all the support group meeting I love .  My Mom has already had it and is my ROCK without her I could not make.     Thank You All
