12 days till surgery
Jul 28, 2017
Hello! So I've been dealing with being chubby, heavy all my life. At one point I did lose weight through 6 days of three hours at the gym and weight watchers. The weight came off for 2 years but then when I stopped I gained it right back. My purpose back then to work hard and lose the weight was because diabetes and heart disease run in my family and I did not want it. When I regained the weight, my nightmare became true and I was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. It's been 3 years since that diagnosis and I have tried real hard to lose the weight but no success. I finally decided I needed some support and went through the 10 month processed required by my insurance to get the Gastric Bypass surgery. My surgeon and endo said that the surgery will help me get off all the pills. I'm excited yet nervous, currently hungry as I prep with the 2 weeks of protein shakes before surgery. I know I need to stick to the plan in order to be successful. Wish me luck!
