So I am 12 days away from having my surgery and I have to take a "leave of absence" from work anyway I did not know that I would need a note from my doctor. I am trying my best to get this letter but I feel like my pleas are going unnoticed. I am starting to get MAD!!!!!   What is taking so long, I was in there on Monday to meet my surgeon. I really need this letter ASAP but I don't want to sound like a rude person but what should I do????? Also what should I think about packing for my hospital stay???

So today me and my mother went to meet my surgeon and we set my date for 9/03/14 I am so ready. I am scared, nervous, excited. I am just a ball of emotions right now. He did not put me on a post-op diet but said I need to leave fast food alone and give up the diet sodas, I can do that. I am so ready for this change that is gonna happen in my life. I am just smiling from ear to ear right now. I feel like I want to cry because its finally happening after years of putting the surgery off. Now at 27 I am ready to take this big step to have a better life. I AM READY!!!!!! 

So I go to meet my surgeon on 8/18/14 for VSG and I would like to know what question I should ask him. This is the same doctor that did gastric bypass on my mother 8 years ago. I am nervous, scared and excited. Also if he does not put me on a pre-op diet should I put myself on one???? 

So I am a week away from meeting my surgeon and I am somewhat on a last supper phase. Tonight I had tacos( more than 5) and a large soda....... What is wrong with me......... I know I can't eat like this when I have my surgery, hell I can't eat  like this now because I would gain more weight, which I really don't want to because my body would hurt a lot more and I would be tired more.  My  nutritionist warned me about this and I thought she was crazy..... Now I see I am the crazy one I have to stop this eating pattern ASAP. This is gonna be a hard phase but I think today was hard because I got paid, I cut the grass, and I waited so long to eat. Which I have to stop doing that. I just need to make it to 8/18/14 when I meet my surgeon and go from there......

So I am on vacation with my family and we went to Plato's Closet....... I was not happy. I could not find anything in my size and I also had no money .... Why did I even go with them.... Anyway my skinny little sister found some nice clothes. The whole time there I felt like a beach whale out of place. It was HORRIBLE..... All I wanted to do was go outside and cry, I swear I hate being fat its so depressing. I can't find anything to wear because of my size..... My mother keeps saying " wait till next year, it will be a new you" I pray she is right because being fat and going shopping is DEPRESSING. 

I got my call today. I am so happy and I feel so blessed. My date to meet the surgeon changed to 8/18/14 the day after my birthday and I am cool with that. I hope this visit goes very well and I hope that my surgery date is set soon after because I am so ready for the new me. 

So on 8/8/14 I meet with the surgeon...... what should I expect to happen...... I hope its something good because I am so ready for my surgery. I had the forms since 2009 but I think I was not mentally and physically ready for surgery but now I think I am ready for it. 

So I had to have 6 month dietary counseling and surveillance and yesterday was my last vist. I would like to know how long should I wait to call my insurance company to see if I was approved for surgery...
