My Story
Jun 23, 2009
I finally made up my mind to have the surgery which is scheduled for June 30, 2009. I am presently on a liquid diet until then....boy! am I hungry.....no not really.....I am doing fine.
Most importanly, I have become so frustrated dealing with being overweight and not feeling well. I have high blood pressure, sleep apnea, elevated cholesterol and border diabetic. My knees hurt, back hurt, everything hurts. I do not want to sleep with a CPAP machine for the rest of my life, nor take all this medicine.
I have tried sooooooo many weight loss programs from Medical Weight Loss Clinic, to Weigh Down Workshop (a christian based program) to Atkins, I have a lifetime membership at Fitness U.S.A., Mayo diet, Cabbage diet, Juicing, Zone, etc. You name it, I've done it. Now I am just tired and frustrated with diets.
I often think back when I was smaller and when I had energy to burn and wasn't so tired and sluggish all the time. My quality for life is so different now. I am slowly deteriorating. Well the buck stops here......After June 30, 2009, I will have a chance to really appreciate my lifetime membership with Fitness U.S.A and rejoin my friends (Ladies of the Water) for water aerobics every evening after work as well as join some Walkers Group. Also I can rejoin my Belly Dancing classes.
