I currently have an appointment for Sept. 09,2008 to meet my dr for the lapband surgery I hope to have soon. I have been overweight all my life about except from the age of 16 and 17 after that I started back on the ride of the every monday diet and weight watchers and low carb. But seemed like I would lose and right back up I would go plus some. I am now 33 years old I am divorced on disability have to children 11 and 13. I am cheating them out of so much do to my obesity. I want a life I am to young for this and I have a vision that I will reach with Gods help and I know that the lap band is going to be the beginning of my new life. I got my dr's appt last week and I have not been able to sleep well since. I have a supportive family and 2 dear cousins that has been with me from the beginning one of my cousins I call my prayer warrior cause she is, she lives in charleston, my other cousin lives in athens so has been with me thru both child births and my marriage boyfriends divorce and so on. She is my angel I love her so much she is taking me to charleston for my visits. I want to say my bmi is 54% and my vision is so great and I know that with God's help I will be a happier and healthier person. I will finally be able to bend to tie my shoes lol. I am excited to be on this journey and I realize the foods I will be giving up my potatoes and noodles and bread main things and I am ok with that.. Just remember this is not only for me but (With God all things are possible). I love people and I look forward in sharing this journey with you all.... I am planning on posting monthly pictures once the ball gets started... God bless you all
I went to the dr's appt at dr's rossi's office He and his staff is such sweet people. I felt so comfortable there he discussed all options with me and let me know that the gastric bypass was the best option for me. I was a lil scared at first he told me that he understood and that this was a big decision to take my time. I called him the next day to let him know that the RYN is the way I wanted to go. I started my liquid diet a week early wow that I regret somewhat. I have all kinds of mixed feelings going on inside. But I am so ready for the change. I am ready for a new me and a new life. Everyone has been so supportive and I pray that everything will be ok. Which I know that it will. I also have a terrible fear of needles even after 2 kids lol. SO please if you pray remember me.. I will keep this updated and God bless you all.....
