Mr Telephone Man......something Wrong With My Line?

It's been a week today and my phone hasn't rung (well with the Approval from my Insurance). My anticipation is through the roof. I can't help but daydream of the outcome of beginning a new life. It's taken me awhile to get here, but I don't want to stop. I've gotten to the point were I feel as if I'm losing me along the way. I don't feel as if I'm very attractive lately. At one point, you could not say I was beautiful and I wouldn't agree. But with weight, comes the burdens of not finding cute and attractive clothing. Wearing knits so they can stretch...or most importantly....not being able to play with your son with out being out of breathe. My my my..... I can only imagine the fun we could have. Mommy swimming with him without feeling are the looking at this BIG lady in a swim suit or being able to go down the slide with him. I know it may seem like I'm beating up on my self but certainly someone feels my pain. I guess to a point, I've been holding these emotions..........mmmmmmm Lastly, I want him to put his arms around me...fully around me and hold me (the man I've been waiting for). Mr. Telephone please ring......

Oh do I wish that phone would ring for you!! Good luck, I am sure it will ring soon. In the meantime know that EVERYONE is beautiful in their own way, find something that you love about yourself and focus on that. Everything else will come in time! (I feel you are a beautiful lady, soon you will too.)

I hear ya girl, My management group wants me to receive my preop tests before they will approve me so that is where i am at. Its been a whole year this month that ive been in the process of receiving my sleeve. Now we are at the final step before and i am praying for patience!! I cant wait to be a normal size person. I just have to remember to breathe.

Aww, I know exactly how you feel, I pray the phone will ring soon for you! I know it will!!, the hardest part is waiting, be encouraged, because in His eyes you are perfect because he made you! Keep you chin up, soon you will get that call and have your surgery and able to run behind your child and slide with him! That is my goal too, I want to have a snowball fight with my girls and take them to Disney world and get on every roller coaster in the park LOL!
