Well, I go for my pre-op tomorrow and one last class. I'm so excited. I'm only 8 days away from having surgery. I'm really not nervous at all. I've been on my pre-op diet since Thursday. I'm already down 7 pounds! Now that I'm on track I'm feeling a lot better mentally. I'm very glad my doctor made me do a pre-op diet b/c I think it will be much harder if I wouldn't have. I'm so looking forward to getting the first 30 pounds off so my back can get some relief. I remember what it was like to not have back pain. It's so hard to do the smallest things such as house work. I never really get out and play with my children either. I can't wait to get my life back!

I'm new to the whole posting of blogs on here.. so here goes.

I started my WLS process in November, 2009. Fast forward 7 months and here I am today. I just got the call yesterday from my surgeon's office telling me I have been approved for surgery. I'm so excited. I've been overweight most of my life. But, it's come to a point where I'm miserable with myself. I have two small boys that I'm unable to enjoy doing things with because of my physical well being.

I'm  hoping to get a surgery date in the next couple of days. Hopefully sometime in June. It seems as though I've waited forever to get my life back. I'm ready to rock and roll!
