Today is Oct. 27,2008 I found out 2 weeks ago that I was approved for my Lap Rny. I have been overweight all my life or so it seems. I had allergies as a child and mom gave me shots starting in the 3rd grade and that's when it started. I have tried Atkins, weight watchers, South Beach, and even a liquid diet through a physician, I lost weight but never kept it off. I have been a diabetic for 10 years and have gradually became insulin dependent. This last year has been the worst, I have had numberous infections caused from the diabetes. I think it will be great to be thinner, but my ultimate goal is my health. I am 41 yeas old and take as much medicine as an 80 year old. I have my pre-op on Nov 5th and hopefully surgery later in the month. I can't imagine my life without all that medicine. I thank God everyday for allowing me this opportunity to start over and be healthy.
