 well ive come this far will be one month post op on thursday and so far ive shed a total of 28 pounds since surgery  having trouble with vitamins protein and calcium but in my next appt with my surgeon i will bring it up and see wat we can do 

 so my surgey is tomorrow i will be the first ''case'' am feeling nerves anxious and a bit off edge in the back of my mind somewhere is still in doubt that its all going to faoll into place but i guess we will know tomorrow morning if i will get my second chance at living. 

 So my date to meet with my surgeon got moved further away from me it was sopposto be jan 27 but got moved to march 9th bc i have to wait til my abdominal utrasound on march 1st to check on my cholesterol polyps in my gallblader ... yes been VERY bumed out everything aggravates me since i got the news but had an aptt today with my nutritionist and got weighed so last time i did a weigh in was on 1/9/12 wich my weight was basicly 270 like i said the np told me if i can loose 9 pds in 2 weeks we can talk surgery date so that same day after my counselor appt i went and got a gym membership! and low and be hold i lost 5 pounds  since jan 9thi mean if that isnt commitment i dont  know wat is but i am looking at the date being moved as an opportunity to loose more weight so wen 3/9/12 comes around ill possibly mostlikely be able to get a surgery date and as of feb 23rd it will be 5 months in to this long exhausting overwhelming journey but i am very far  in the game so i am not about to call it quits now!

~Stay positive~

So today i had an appt with my np and we went over all the things ive completed so far (wich is EVERYTHING) ..... She spoke to me about having a possible '' Date'' if i can shed 9 pds in 2 weeks! oh my ive done things at last minute but 2 weeks!!!?? and its not that i wont put my all into trying to make it happen bc i will this is the only thing left to complete is the 9 pds right about now i am 269.8 pds so the np said if i can loose 9 pds in two weeks ill have a date..... its encouraging and motivating but at the sametime so far from my grasp..... so my hubby is signing him and i up  for the gym tomorrow  excited about that... currently waiting on my sleep apnea equipment to get here hopefully b4 the 27th... um the np told me i had a cholesterol polyp in my gallbladder so i have to go for another  ultra sound next month aside from that all my testing came back negative giving me and my surgeon the green light to move on with this crazy long but worth it process... well wanted to share it with who ever reads this :-) i am very excited and looking forward to this two week weight loss challenge hope you all have a good day !

 so i got a call with an appt to visit with my sergeon again probably to go over the paper work and then submit it to the insurance had my endoscopy done yesterday that went well told me i had a small hiatus hernia but besides that i was a ok.. well thats all for now hopefully on the 9th i can write some good news! :-)

Still waiting for a date its very aggravating sitting here wondering if their going to even give me one after ALL ive been trough my surgeon wanted me at 268 and i lost 20 lbs still seeing a counselor so thats wat i am doing so far in my journey  but oh well hopefully my patience will pay off in the end! Happy holiday's to you all

 Well had my very first appt since my seminar back in september, and i have to say they made me feel very comfterble met with my surgeon she explained everything and how we would proceed so after that i met with the person who will be in charge of all my appts from here on till all of my testing is done and i play the waiting game til the health insurance gives me the green light but in all it was a very nice pleasent experince and i wouldnt have had it sny other way! Ihave 3 appts this month on the 28th and one on December 13th well i have started my journey now to go trough all the obsticles in its way to make it to the finish line!!! am in it to win it

So today i weighed myself the last time i did that was September 9th, 2011 it is now October 24th,2011 and i went from 270 to 256!!! can u believe it ?..... i cant i am hoping to stay btw these numbers til atleast November 18th,2011 wen i go for my 1st WLS aptt hopefully i dont have to loose too much when and if my doctor decides to put me on a supervised diet. Well just wanted to write thblois down since this is a blog lol i like to keep file with theses things so wen in doubt i can go back here and re assure myself well i am very proud of myself took me a month or so to get back on a scale for the fear that id gain more on top of the 270 from september but as u can see ive lost and i will try to keep my weight were it is untill further notice.

Very pleased!!! 

Today i went to visit my doc and i asked her for the recommnedation letter and she wrote it and gave it to me i am very excited yet very nurves but takin it day by day and takin baby steps i am new here this is my first time so ill get the hang of this soon. 

Stay Positive!
