Funny when I was young time went by so slowely...now that I am older, time is passing before me so quickly. I have been so busy this past month...Stock show time with the kids...I had to reschedule my DR appointment because of it. But I went in today, and guess what????? I got a scheduled surgery date!!!! FINALLY!
I am so ready to start this journey...April 28th!!!
I am so excited to finally get the ball rolling towards being a healthier me..for myself and for my kids!!
I was actually supeised at how positive my doctor was today. I lost another 5 pounds (had actually lost 13 more than that but gained 8 back during the show) He told me that I was part of the small percentage of his patients that are in good health going into this surgery, and that other than the weight are in good physical health. that made me feel better about myself, and if he tells everyone that, then he is smart cuz it worked!!!!
I have to keep dieting and he would like me to lose 11 more before the surgery date. He said the liquid diet a week before may help me get rid of those pounds. I see it as 11 less pounds I have to lose, so I am determined to get it and more if possible off before surgery day!!
I am so excited, but yet those fears adn insecurities are starting to creep in now that the yay part is wearing off.I am doing just what he tells me and praying for a safe journey through this. Any WLS post ops out there...I would apprecaite any tips on what to buy and have in preperation for next month!!!
This is a pic of me at my heaviest (15 pounds heavier than today) Since I am starting my countdown today I wanted to start it off right!!!
