I was undecided to tell anyone that I am thinking about wls.. I don't know anyone that has gone through the process.. So the day I decide to tell someone I was so shocked with what she had to say.. Back in the summer of 2014 she ask me if I never thought about wls.. Her friend had the surgery lost her weight.. When I ran into beginning of February I told her about being referred.. She told me not to do it!!!! My mouth dropped to the floor did I hear her right!! She the one that brought it up now doesn't support it!!! She beg me not to go ahead with the process.. Said her friend that had the surgery had complications almost lost her life.. Of course this scared me  but this is the risk we take... So I have decided not to tell anyone else don't need the negative in my life.. I will look for support from others that's on the same journey as me, either they are at the beginning middle years out or even thinking about it!!! 

My referral was sent in end of October 2014. My family Dr told me it will be while before I hear from Humber river hospital but with reading on OH seeing people getting there orientation date in couple mins.. November and December went by January was here still nothing now it's the beginning of February nothing.. Posted on OH someone gave me the hospital number I called the lady said I should be getting my package within 2 weeks if not to call again.. Monday feb 9 I got the package with orientation date March 23.. Finally I couldn't believe it it's becoming so real I kind of panic for few days.. Now I can't wait to attend orientation!!! As I am waiting for orientation read things that we have to stop.. They say no pop I gave that up in November it was a week of headaches.. Cutting back on carbs increasing my protein.. January I tried no coffee after two days I need COFFEE!!!! Couldn't do it.. February increased my water in take, taking multi vitamin everyday and vitamin D.. So now it's back to giving up coffee!!! 

I am considering weight lose surgery been on obesity help for a few months peeking around reading a lot sitting on the side line once in while comment or post.. But one thing I enjoy the most is reading people blogs.. Loves the blogs specially the ones that have been posting from the beginning.. Reading about their journey what they have been through the emotions everything the wait times.. So I am going to become a blogger hopefully someone in the near future will read my blogs see the steps I am going through!!
