Wow Feb 15th one day away!
Feb 14, 2010
Well this is it! the day is almost here. I can't believe that it's almost here! I only have one day of liquid diet so that's cool. But I must admit I can use a little food right now
LOL! I can't wait until I get to the hospital I think it will all hit me then:)
I think the only thing that I really worry about is the blood clotting and the pain from the gas that people are always talking about
!! But other than that I think I'm cool! I just wanted to come and voice my concerns and excitement! My God keep his hand around me and I see you guys later

Yes yes yes...Still waiting I been told that my case has been closed! Now from my understanding and asking questions that means that the paper work has went to the doctor and waiting to be signed? That was a week ago? I called yesterday to see how things were going and then I was told that she was always two days behind and that the papers are not on the doctors desk, that she hasn't taken them yet?? Come on! Now this is the stuff that really get's under my skin! If my papers were not at the doctors desk then why was I told that! i'm okay with waiting I just want to know the truth don't just tell me something to get me to shut up? So as I said the waiting is running me CRAZY

Jan 22, 2010
Well I'm still waiting on my surgery date! I had a stress test that was prescribed by my doctor and that went well! now all I'm doing now is waiting 
The stress test could have been better if my nurse would have left me alone while I was on on the treadmill WTH!! I was about to die and all she wanted to do was talk??? My insurance company did approve me I'm also wondering how long will it take for my doctor to give his approval? I think this is the worst thing yet is the waiting part ARRRHH! I want so bad to get things going and my life back on track!

Today is Sunday Jan 3, 2010!! Wow!....That seems amazing to me to even write that! In 2010 I want to change my life my health my way of living! I want the Lap Band! I have been thinking about it for some years now and this is the year I want to change my life, this is why I WANT TO BE APPROVED! I want to be approved because I want to improve my life my health I want to be approved because I want to be here for my family! and the way that I'm eating and not taking care of myself I won't be! I want to be healthy I want a meal plan I want to eat right! I have tried everything! I tried lo-carbs and boy did I loose I lost a lot of weight I even got down to my dream weight of 150lb and MAN I WAS HAPPY! at least for a minute! yes we all know that weight lost with the lo or no carb is very temporary and that it was TEMPORARY. I lost that weight I felt good about myself! and I looked good lol! it's so cool to feel good about yourself, is that wrong?? No it's not! it's how we all should feel and some of us need a little help to get there! no matter what it may be to make you feel that way, if it makes you feel good than that's the thing for you! everything isn't for everybody! we all have our needs and special things that make us feel good! looking good to myself is want I wanted and needed, feeling good is want I wanted my energy was up my back, legs, feet none of that hurt! I was able to workout climb stairs without feeling as if I was going to faint.
I want to be approved because I don't want to be in pain anymore, I want to be able to sit in a roller coaster and not feel tight, I want to climb stairs and not breath hard I want to get of my car and not hold on to the door, I want my body not to hurt, I want to be able to play with my daughter and not feel as if I'm going to die! I want to be approved! I WANT TO LIVE!

Pt.2 Waiting for my life to change
Jan 01, 2010
I think I know where my eating habits stems from? I think it started when I was a kid? Now I know I said that I wasn't a chubby kid but I still believe the bad eating habits began there. What I mean by that is, I can remember when my mom used to take me a my sisters to go get something to eat, like out to eat, and every time I would ask for something special or not even special just something that I wanted I could never have it! even if I ask for cheese on my hamburger I couldn't have it! It made me so mad lol! and I remember saying to myself that when I get big I'm going to eat what ever and where ever I want when I wanted to.
Do you know that till this day when I go to eat, I have that same thought in my head, that I had when I was a little girl, that I'm able to buy whatever I wanted and that's what I do! I know there's something wrong with that lol but that's how I feel sometimes I can afford it, I'm grown, and I eat what I want and as much as I want, Knowing that it's hurting me but I just couldn't stop I just eat eat and eat!!!
What's also funny about my eating habits are, I have to eat everything on my plate which also stems from my childhood. You know the old saying by your mom! eat everything on your plate OK.... And that's what I do, when I know that I'm full and just fell as though I'm wasting food by throwing it away?? I'm so sad:( I'm so fed up with myself and ready for a change! I'm ready to make a lifestyle change! The weight that I have gained has really changed my life personally and emotionally. Lord knows I have prayed to him and I think that he has lead me here for the help of someone else to help me with this journey of changing my life.

To begin my story!
First I would like to say that I'm not a writer nor am I a blogger, but what I can write is how I fell. I can say that I didn't start my life off as being a over weight child or adult, but as time and age came along so did the weight. I remember that my weight started to stick after I had my child which I only have the one. Even after that I was able to get back down to my normal weight which I would maintain a weight of 150 to 170 pounds standing a 5ft. 61/2 in, which is where I would love to be now! Well later on in life the weight got harder and harder to come off and more and more stayed. Still not really that big I was still in good health, a little heavy but still in good health.
But later on in life those good ole young genes gave up on me and the weight started to stick! I tried I think every diet I could think of from low carbs, no carbs, weight watchers, liquid diets and more, I even tried eating right and that didn't work, I did lose weight but it never stayed off.
