In the beginning...

Oct 06, 2011

I made a decsion.After 7 years of having my weight spiral out of control it's time to put an end to it and take control! I'm 28 and am looking forward to finding a husband and starting a family, something that just doesn't seem probable in this shape. So, I've made the decision, after many failed diets, to look into WLS. After speaking with a nutritionist and my family doctor who both recommend it, I have set up an appointment with a surgeon to discuss the different types and which would be best for me. The past month has been spent getting poked and proded and tested to bring a full picture of my current health to the surgeon. This is easier said then done and seems to be never ending when results from one test lead the doctors to suggest yet another test due to something they see. One CT of the liver to go, and I should be done! I'm lucky to live in a country that has universal healthcare which would make this very affordable. The downside is that I just moved here a year and a half ago and have no idea how this system works! I am learning as I go, and hoping with each appointment that the doctor speaks english. It keeps life intersting. So, here's to the start of a very long journey. Hopefully giving me results like the ones I see from all of you here on this site. I want to turn my health around and be able to enjoy life to it's fullest.
L'chayim! To life!
