Almost 3 months out-time is flying
May 14, 2013
Well it's hard to believe it has almost been 3 months. I always include my pre-op diet since it was the beginning of the new me and then of course every 25th is my official monthly surgiversary . I feel really good at this point but at the same time I didn't think I would be saying this but I haven't made time for exercising and need this to maximize my weight loss. Because I have dieted so much during my adult life, I have to say I am very confused about what to do. Do I start P90X since I have purchase both the old and new version? Use my zumba dvd or take zumba classes outside my home to hold me more accountable? Join a gym? I know this is a vital part of the program and yet I am dragging my feet on this.
I know I will get it all worked out, just doing lots of reading and research so that I stick to a program that is most beneficial for my weight loss right now.

One week Post OP

Wow, what a tough week! I usually don't have long recovery times but whether age is now a factor or I was just one of those...gas pains in my chest are horrible! I do feel much better and I have already lost 7 pounds since the surgery, so this is exciting for me. Total pounds lost since pre-op diet and surgery is 16 pounds. It just feels so good to know these pounds won't jump right back on me for once. The liquid diet is a little bland but I know I can and will tough it out!
Got my surgery date....2-25-13

Yay....I am so excited. I can't wait to begin this new chapter in my life. I am tired of feeling the way I do and looking the way I do. I am aware this will be one of the hardest things I have done thus far in my life but I am confident I will succeed!!
Now to begin all my pre-op, diet to start Wednesday, February 13th.

Well I just saw the doctor two days ago to discuss what WLS he recommends, We are going to go with a VSG. I am trying to educated myself as much as possible on this type of surgery to ensure the best possible results. The doctor's office is going to submit everything and said I should know something in about 2-3 weeks. I am getting very excited. I will post more information regard my situation as soon as I here it!
