His nurse Hmm she's another story. This whole time I've come to OBH I thought I would have to do a liquid diet before surgery, to my surpize I dont. I was sooo happy. But, Dr Ali said if I wanted to I could and they had the perfect drink to sub my meals with. I spoke with his nurse and mann she was telling me I HAD TO USE THE LIQUID DIET. I turned to her and said I dont have to do shit. I've already started losing weight on my own yeah only 8bls but hell thats a start and I still have a few weeks left to lose more weight. She prosseded to tell me its better for me..which Im sure it is.. but damn the carb and sugar count was higher then what I do on my own. And I told her no.. even more so 125 a week noooo thats ok Im mean I could do it, its not a money issue but, being told I have to with all those carbs and sugar uh uh noo way. LOL stubburb B*&%# huh..LOL
8 weeks and counting
Apr 14, 2008
I really wonder what it takes to get people on here to talk more? Im looking to contact anyone in my area to maybe become a work aut partner. We all know its no fun working out alone. Anyhoo I guess I'll stop talking to myself..lmao j/k.
I also bought 10 books on the whole gastric bypass life the likes and dislikes. Im sure by the time Im done Ii'll have all the books on this subject. Im almost done with my first book. its called " Its not over till the thin lady sings" by Michelle Ritchie. The book is completely funny, Sad, and also has you do a few asignments to get to know your own way of thinking on paper. I would recommend this book for those who are thinking of doing the sugery. Anyhoo enough for now I'll be returning next week.
That Call everyone waits on once Approved

Finally got a date for my sugery...JUNE 2ND 2008 Holyyyyyy chit man its comin true. All I keep thinking about is no longer have to worry where to sit wondering if Im goin to fit. Not waking up in complete pain having skinny sex..lmao sorry thats been goin thru my mind. LOL its goin to be crazy. I've seen so many awesome before and after pics..but the whole loos skin is really scaring me. I'd rather not go though another major surgery to get it done. My second job will be working out for a few hours. That just scares me to death. I've seen some of them pics where the before was better then the after Im a big girl with that kind of belly that flaps over the pelvic area. Im hoping a chit load of sit up and walking and what ever it takes to make it not be haning to my knees LOL. I just wished it was sooner. When I got that call and she said well you ready for your date. I was ohhh hell yea give it to me. When she said June..my heart went down to my tummy. My reply to her was isnt there anaything else sooner..LOL. She laugh said no. Damn. O'well 2months will go by in a flash. I have one on one talk with my doctor in May. So we'll see what happens there. In the mean time I've been working out already. Just got bycicle over the weekend OMG that was sooo awesome to ride again..LOL and I even got a special seat for my bike so my bigg butt wouldnt hurt as much. It was soo rejuvinating it wasnt even funny. Anyhoo Thats all for now. I must go and do more read on this whole after life of the bypass.Reaceived that call that made me Cry.

WEll, today I got the call from my PCP, she said I was approved for my first consultation. I have an appointment Jan 10 2008 for class. How exciting is that. I thought for sure it was going to take longer. Im sure the worst it still to come once they get all the paper work together. I feel like Im goin in this blindly. I read a few things on here which tells me to do something different. I guess I shouldnt rush to much..I've been heavy all my life..whats a few more weeks huh...heheh. I've been stressing thought what I have to see a head doctor for. I guess I'll know more once my feet are in the door more. My boyfriend has been so supportive. He even looked up the bariatric surgeon before I could even get to work and check him out. Dr Peter Leport is who Im authorized with. Im getting antsy thought. I asked Aiesha what makes the processes go quicker..she said its all up to me. I was dumbfounded really. So, I guess I'll see what she has to say when my appointment comes up.
Anyhoo, enough venting for now. Im goin back in the site and look at all the beautiful people before and after pics. Just a little note.. they were beautiful before and now after!
*keeps Smilin*
Butterflies
Oct 25, 2007
After talkin to my girlfriend I've decided I would figure out what would be the best choice for me to a surgical weight loss program.
When I think about it, I get this butterfly feeling in my stomach.
I feel Im scared to lose weight. I've been heavy so long I've grown to love myself for my size. How do I over come this feeling my weight is a security blanket?
But, then again after seeing some of the results OMG it totally excites me and to think hopin my knees wont hurt anymore. And to think I dont have to try and find another Plus size store cause the old stores are always the same it seem. I get excited thinking I can go anywhere and not worry someone is goin to have the same shirt as I do..although it would be funny knowing someone my size has the same taste or is stuck wearing that same design. I dunno I have all these mixed feelings about it and looking for guidence from someone that had the same feeling or close to it as I do now.
Im hoping posting this will get someones attention
