I Am Ready
Dec 10, 2007
I have known for about 5 years that I wanted to have WLS. I've been overweight now for almost 20 years and there isn't a diet I haven't tried. I am beyond the point where a simple diet will help me. I need a real solution.
But knowing something and being ready for it on an emotional level are two entirely different things.
Now, I am ready.
The last time I was weighed, in March, I was at 353 pounds. And I know there hasn't been any downward movement on that number. I am at or over that now.
So, I signed up to attend a seminar on January 9th with the surgeon that a co-worker recommended. And I emailed my Benefits Coordinator in HR before leaving work today to help smooth the way and ensure coverage. She told me earlier in the year that when I was ready she would do everything she could to help me get approved. She really helped my co-worker when she had her surgery.
