it's been a year since my last post
May 02, 2008
Well it's been a whole year since I last posted. So much has happened, which is too much to post. I have had two open revisions, my gall bladder removed, was on a pic line with nutrition for two months plus had a seizure and tia. While it has been one hell of a rough ride, I am grateful to be where I am now. I tell everyone that I am not here to deter anyone from having surgery, but I will answer any questions honestly that is asked of my complications. Most ask.............would you still do it again Nicole? My answer is always yes. I am a rare case of some severe and not so severe complications, I knew the risks when I did. So I am here now, healthlier than I have been in years and ready to enjoy this new feeling.
2 months out
Apr 02, 2007
Well alot has changed in two months. I finally hit onederland this morning and have never felt better in my life. It is a mental healthy as well as physical. I would never regret this decision. Sometimes I wish I could guzzle a soda or inhale a cheesesteak but then I look in the mirror and like what I see. Can't wait for month three to come!
one month out
Feb 26, 2007
ok so I am now one month out and dow about 30 lbs. I can tell a huge difference I just need to measure myself. I am getting discouraged because I am hungry for everything i was before surgery and I am worried I will be that one statistic that fails. I know so far I should be glad but I am really getting worried
Getting nervous
Jan 29, 2007
OK so I have been waiting for this forever and now I am nervous. What the hell is wrong with me. I have 3 days left till my new life begins and I am already ready to throw up. I am going to blog everyday I can post op though so people like me can read how some others recovery went. I am just so nervous that I am going to forget something or need something that I did not buy.
Just waiting on approval
Dec 13, 2006
Guess this is where the long agonizing wait comes in. I am finished with all my tests and am just waiting for the insurance company to approve or deny me. Everything has gone so smoothly up till this point I am really waiting for a snag. I hope this process go quickly and I can be on my way to a more healthy lifestyle.
