Well here goes nothing...Blogging I think will help in my progress with weight-loss, I have been a big girl most of my life and I have lost & gained many times over and tirelessly failing. I had been researching Gastric Surgery for over 10 yrs, I wasn't interested 10yrs ago because I felt it was too new and that one day perhaps this would be a possibility.
I have lost & gained many times over and getting into my mid 30s I started to get tired quickly, I have always been very active but in recent years I have worked later and made excuses to going to the gym.
I decided bariatric surgery would help me, so I have been researching and listening & reading many others journey.

My Insurance was a nightmare, I see people like myself who work hard and for insurance does nothing all to help you. Insurance's don't care & you are a dollar sign to them.

I will be sleeved on July 23rd, 2014, I am calling this journey, "Operation Phoenix" just like the Phoenix rises from the ashes, I am also transforming myself with the help of gastric surgery.

Positivity and a Healthy Life Style for me.

Cheers!
