I know, I know, its been way to long for an update. But I have been so busy here lately. I am loving my new life. I am only 2 months away from my sugeryversary. OMG time has flown by, I guess time does fly by when you are having fun!! I am 115 pounds lighter. I am wearing, 5/6 pants and mostly small to medium tops. Never in a million years did I think that I would ever be able to wear this. Well gotta run, Hope all is well with everyone.

I went to a local Goodwill yesterday (mon) just to look. I ended up coming out of there with 4 pairs of pants and 6 skirts for work. They were all size 14's. I told my g-ma that I wouldn't be able to get into these now, but maybe in no time I will. So we shop around town a little while. Then later on that evening when I got home, i though well Ill try these on just to see how far I have to go. I could wear every pair of them. I was so excited. I was almost in tears. I can not remember if I have ever been able to wear 14's. I was so excited.
3 weeks out!!

I am 3 wks post op. OMG I can't believe that this is me. 28 pounds gone forever!! I feel so much better, and everyone can tell it. I am starting to tell it a little. I guess I see myself everyday, and can not notice like others!! All my clothes are starting to fall off!! I go see Dr N tomorrow afternoon and hopefully he will move me to the next stage. So crablegs and shrimp here I come! HA HA.

Okay so am 1 day away from being 1-week post-op. I was going to weigh tomorrow. But temptaion got the best of me, and I needed a little boost and something to lift my spirits for all of these liquids.. Okay so here goes. I am officially 11 lbs lighter. I am so happy, that is almost 2 lbs a day. I have never lost that much, not even 2 lbs in a week. I am so excited. This is exactly what i needed to get me motivated. So far so good. I have my 2 week follow up appointment is Friday, and hopefully I can start the next stage of my new life!! I will update as soon as I get back from my appt. 
Oh and as far as pain, it is actually 100% better. I am walking and sipping. And drinking that wonderful 64 grams of protein a day.

Okay, where do I begin. My surgery is in less than 4 days. I can not believe that I am finally here. I never thought that starting a new life could feel this good. I am so excited I can hardly wait!! I am so ready to start the road to a new and improved me. Today is my last day at work for the time out. I have never been gone for more than my weeks vacation. It is so surreal. I can't contain myself. All is can say in Thank You Lord, without him and the support I have been givin, I would not be where I am right now. I will update as soon as I can. Please say a little prayer for me April 22.
On the way!!!!

I am starting my happy dance. I meet with Dr Nazari on April 9th, 2008. I will know my surgery date that day. S.S. also said that I WILL be having my WLS in April. I can not wait. I can not believe that this moment is here. It is so surreal, and unbelievable. I can not wait. I will post when I find out the day. This Friday 3/21 will be my very last FAT birthday. I can not believe this. I would love to thank all of my OH family, without any of you I would not have made it this far, and I know that I can count on everyone through my new life.Met Dr Nazari!!!

I went Thursday 2/21/08 for my Endoscopy, and I met Dr Nazari. Can I say that I absolutely love him. He was so wonderful, down to earth, and answered all the questions that I had. He met my mom, and she loves him too. He is wonderful. I really can not wait until my BIG day!
My schedule
Feb 20, 2008
Okay, I thought all of the pre-op stuff would take 4 EVER, Actually it's not. I have already been cleared pulmonary, cardiac, and have had my blood work done. I go for my endoscopy tomorrow morning (nervous 
). I am probably worried for nothing like always! Next Wednesday, I meet my Nutrionalist, then next Thursday, I go to the Pyschologist. (ive been told they might not clear me for this, they will find out that I am Crazy!!) Just kidding.
After next Thursday, I will finally get to meet Dr. Nazari, I am super excited. Then hopefully (fingers crossed
) they can schedule my surgery for April 7, 2008.
I am glad that I found about OH this has really been a big help to me. At first I was a little skeptical about the whole Surgery thing, but since reading about all the wonderful people on here, I am more excited then anything.
I don't know much but if you have questions about what I have already been through, please ask.
