Finally...for me!

I'm not going to get all fancy with this entry...or any of them. I am not fancy. I am fat. Not that fat can't be fancy...I digress...

I went to the seminar and turned in my insurance info to get my first appointment. I have to wait 6 months for my insurance, but that will fly by.

I think it's better for me this way. I can take the time to wrap my head around the lifestyle changes I will have to make.

I am already feeling better about my future! I have dug out clothes I haven't worn in years! I am so excited about being a normal sized person! About not having to take all these pills! About coming off the diabetic list!! I'm getting my life back! I WANT TO LIVE!

I want to live my life inside MY new lighter body! I can't wait!!!

I had to wait six months for my insurance company to approve my surgery. At first I was upset to think I had to wait six months, but to my surprise it wasn't long until I decided that the six month waiting period wasn't long enough. I started reading everything I could get my hands on and there was so much information to consume that I found that I wished I had more time. I am now less than 30 days away from surgery I have many mixed emotions because of the new life style i will be embarking on. The one thing I am sure of is that I know that I am doing the right thing for my my health. The joy of knowing that my health will improve far exceeds any fears I might be harboring. Breathing with ease and standing at my kitchen sink for more than five minutes sounds wonderful!!!!!
