Ok So this is the part that I get to write all about me yipee hahaha. Well my name is Desiree I currently live in California yes the most expensive state in the world as it seems. I have been overweight all my life unfortunatly! I have struggled with my life forever especially had a very hard time when I was in junior high I would not wear cute clothes I basically would just wear jeans and big sweatshirts even when it was hot and some of ya'll might know that California gets HOT, so basically I was suffering just because I was overweight. When I got into highschool I kinda changed my attitude and was more the type that I didnt really care what others thought about me therefore I'd wear whatever I wanted no i dont mean clothes that I shouldnt of been wearing but just cute clothes that big girls could wear to. I am still the type that I dont really care what others thing of me and I will wear cute clothes for big girls and I do take pride in the way that I look like although I am more conscious of my weight therefore I know that I must do something about it. I really knew that I need to lose weight when I was in the store with my mom buying stuff for a friend of mine's baby shower and the cashier said so when are you due? I just about died so after that I decided that I wanted to get WLS considering that I have tried every diet on the face of this earth. I went to my doctor and she was very hesitent to even send a referral over for me because of my age but I was able to talk her into it because I have tried every diet and I also told her that I want to live longer to see myself have children. About a month after she referred me I got an appointment to go to a pre orientation so I went and I was a bit scared after that because they showed us exactly how the operation was done. After that appointment I received an appointment to go meet the psychologist, I was very nervous about this appointment because I have never seen a psychologist before and I didnt even know what to expect, so when I went to the appointment I went there with a clear positive attitude. The pyschologist was the nicest woman I think i've ever met and she approved me, she made me feel so good about myself because she reassured me that i'm not in this alone a lor of people have the same problem as me! After seeing the psychologist I went to the orientation and at the meeting they gave us our WLS journey binders and also our dates to meet our surgeons. My date to meet my surgeon is April 14th! I cant wait. I am hoping to have my surgery in June! So I think i've wrote more than enough hope to hear from ya'll!
