2 Weeks Prior to Surgery

So my surery is scheduled for 05/02/11. Pre-op visit is scheduled the Friday prior.

I am excited & nervous at the same time. Have been a little stressed about having any type of surgery, for one as I have never had surgery in my life and two because my income keeps my family afloat and we will be on a tight shoestring for the next few months. I feel that with that having been said, this is one of those "Life Changing" decisions and is VERY necessary for my future health & wellbeing.

Been organizing things and getting ready to be down for a few weeks. Thank God for my support system and my faith in God. I am sure that this is the best choice for my health and the fact that I will feel better & move more with less weight is a very good thing.

Am so thankful for the Kaiser Program and all the people involved. They have helped prepare me for this huge step and have taught me so much about food and about myself as a person.

Having hobbies, doing more things with my time, has opened my eyes to so many fun and wonderful things I have allowed food to overshadow. NO MORE.
