Well all I wanna say is that im am sooooo happy!! 
July 31 was my 1 yr out and i am doing great. I never thought i could look like this ever in my life because i was soooo 
scared to have the surgery. Now I have no regrets and i would do it alll over again! There are ups and downs but I thank God that he has given me another chance in life with no hurting or no regrets. Years before i have been miserable and depressed to how i used to look and now i am happy the way i am! I get many compliments that i dont know how to take but im sure ill get used to them. lol 
last year: current:
wieght 281 172
pant 20/22 10/12
shirt 2XL M/L
shoe 9 71/2-8
ring 8 6
I feel good about myself and am pleased that i have made it this far! I still have a long journey ahead and hoping things well turn out for the best in life!

Today is my last day out of hospital and i am feeling a lil scared...I kno i should be excited but im more scared than usually. I know its probably a feeling should have but im just thinking bad thoughts instead of being positive. Its kinda hard to do things alone when no one is around. My mom well be here tomorow morning for my surgery and hopefully things get back on track for me. I am praying to God that everthing turns out good for my with this new life he has in stock for me!!! I just want to be a normal person again an not be hurting or fat again!!! see everyone on the other side!!

Well as you probably have seen already......My doc and I submitted for an approval on June 17th to my insurance.... 
Well guess what....IM APPROVED!!!! 
I am sooo excited because I did a lot of praying to God that if he really thinks this was safe for me...then he'll let this approval go thru. 
If it was his well for me to do this operation then I prayed to him telling him that it was all in his hands. 
On June 23 I was getting a little anxious and I called my insurance to see what was going on. The Rep told me I still had 4 more days and that my approval was still pending.
I got discourage and just let it go. That next morning I was dropping off a friend and letting her what was going on when I get a strange number calling me. 
I parked my truck and answered.... just to hear that it was my surgeons nurse telling me that I was approved for the surgery....I screamed in tears 
but my nervousness came along with it. The nurse was trying to ask me when was a good time for my surgery but I just couldn't seem to think "when". 
I go to school til July 28th and I work full time. So I just couldn't make up my mind as to when. Finally it took me about 5 mins to snap out of it and decided that I was going to have the surgery on July 30th. Now im soo excited as I could ever be but then again I am a nervous reck. I know there are so many risks that im welling to chance but Im still skeptical. It was all so fast for me and I am not more scared than ever. Hopefully I can keep this cool and pray about so that I can get over these feelings before the time is here. If you have any comments to share...im ready for them!!! thanks for reading and God bless everyone with their journey!!!
