GETTING READY FOR SURGERY

Feb 20, 2009

Well, i didnt think I would want to blog anything but here goes..I am 32 years old and I have 3 beautiful daughters 10,7,14 months.  I have been overweight most of my adult life.  I was the most active person in highschool.  I played all sports and was quite good if I may say so.  After highschool is when the scale starting to rise and the kids didnt help my weight any.  In the last year I have gained 50 lbs bringing my highest weight as of 2/9/09 to 392lbs.  OH MY GOD did I actually type that HUGE number?  Anyway..I found DR A and am scheduled for VSG surgery on 2/28/09.  I have been on the preop liquid diet for 2 wks now and still have another week to go.  It is very challenging cooking for my man and children since I want to GOBBLE up everything I see...but instead I just drink some more chicken broth and keep on trucking.  So far in 12 days I have lost 22lbs.  I am happy about that..I can even tell in my face that I have lost weight.  My clothes are starting to feel alittle looser.  I am very excited for what the surgery holds in store for me.  I am on the other hand very nervous as I have never been under anesthesia and do not know what to expect.  Susan has been great and is very knowlegable.  I am certain that this woman is heaven sent!  Thank you Susan.  M
************My goal weight is 180 which mean I need to lose 190 more and I will accomplish this with the sleeve...There is no room for failure here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  So everyone wish me luck and I will try my best to keep you posted.  I want to thank all of you bloggers and message posters out there you have been an inspiration to me and a wealth of knowledge.....THANKS PEEPS...........talk to you soon!
