lauraleigh reacted to sk8lady in The last straw!!!I've been slowly losing this war for a very long time. I would win a battle now and then, but each time, when I started to go "up" again, it would go just a little bit higher than the time before. But I could always count on being able to go back to my comfort zone......until last October! It had been a while since I had tried to put on my skates, but this time it was like squeezing my feet into a pair of skates that were 2 sizes too small! How (and when) did that happen? Of course I knew how and that it was it for me! I had often thought about WLS but never thought I was "that far gone." I had finally crossed the line!
I started to research and it took me a few weeks to bring up the subject with my wonderful husband. I would have bet the ranch that he was going to balk at the idea so imagine my shock when he jumped right on board! We went to an informational seminar two weeks later and my journey began on 11/16/10.
My surgery is scheduled for March 24th...less than 5 days away! Getting excited and nervous but I know that I will be a happier and healthier me and I can't wait to "roll" again!!!
