i miss being on here so much & i swear i'm gonna keep u guys updated.  i go to see my surgeon on 8/29 and will report everything after that.   xoxo!

    not much to say
i get weighed on 8/10
haven't weighed myself
but when i look in the mirror i realize that
I'M MELTING!

god is good
god is alive (c) prince
so am i
it's been a while since i posted anything...i think i am still slight
disbelief that i actually DID THE DAMN THING!
the first week out of surgery was a percocetted blur
the second week was ok....i'm still a little sore but the lightning
pace @ which i'm losing weight is worth more than any amount
of the slight discomfort that i am going through.
i know my journey has just begun, but i want to thank each and every
one of the folks that prayed for me and offered their support throughout.
i have the best family & friends on earth and could not imagine going
through rny without them.  my mother is a TROOPER.  she is still up
here in nyc taking care of her baby. 
thank god
thank u OH
thank u love.

i got approved for surgery on tuesday after only about 24-48 hours of waiting (from aetna).  even though my journey will really only begin on 7/12/07, if it weren't for the hundreds of stories and thousands of photos i've viewed on this site since january, i may not even be on my way to this life change.  so i want to thank all of you folks (that i don't even know), for your countless stories of inspiration, happiness, heartache, triumph and love.  i don't think that you have any idea how each one of you teaches another one of us. 

aetna hmo...ive heard horror stories about their denials.....as time is winding down NOW i get nervous.  anyway, my laptop is in the shop so its hard for me to blog but i will try to keep up.  

peace.

i had NO mickeyfickey business having that crap for b'fast this a.m. but i was so happy about losing 4 lbs since last week that i fell off the wagon....but i know for a fact that i'm turning into diet maniac because (hopefully) i will be getting the surgery soon.  my last weigh in is on june 5th.  pray for me people.....if aetna doesn't approve me i'm gonna lose it and i'm not talking weight.  okay, toodles until tomorrow. (i swear i'm gonna write on this thing EVERYDAY!, girl scout girl cookies honor). 

hey, havent posted in a minute
but since the time is winding down (i pray)
i've made a decision to TRY and make updates
every day of my pre-op life
i need to document how my body & life feel now
so that i can have something to revisit then and
remember this feeling.
it's a really beautiful day out so i really can't complain
i've been working out EVERY DAY for the last 2 weeks
in order to prepare my body for the "moment"
i'm gonna log off now, but i'll be back tomorrow
toodles!

since its going to take 6 months before i can even begin to get approved, i figure i should use my profile space to blog about the yellow brick road that led to the high bmi that i am now the unproud owner of.  i will title this series of entries, "My FIrst Fat" aka realizing that i was fat and no longer skinny.
