lilly's journey

My BMI is 36% and will be getting my vsg in October

I will be driving from Arizona where are you from?

I have been nervous lately but I guess is normal. I'm trying to get a living will set up for my family

You look great wow 137 lbs loss in 7 months that is great way to start melting away those pounds

I was going to wait until I saved money luckly I got a promo offer 0% apr from my credit card. Funny thing is that I had activate promo by 10/08/2012 that's date wanted to have my wls. I have the money ready and I will just try to pay my bal it before my promo expires.

I told my hubby he was not too sure about it at first but now he is 100% supportive of my decision. I told 3 of my co-workers and my boss (I trust my boss, plus he has to know I will be out of work for a few days) and told 1 out of my 7 siblings she was very supportive. I'm not telling my mom cuz she is judgemental and can be negative at times and telling her is like telling my whole family lol. I love u mom, I might tell them right after surgery.

Lilee84, you are doing in such a short time. Congrats

Good luck! Wishing u a speedy recovery

I'm ready for a change I'm so tired of feeling they way I feel now BMI 36%. I'm tired of spending money of diets that don't give me the results I want. I have been working so hard and I never do nothing for my self well this will be my early Bday and xmas present I'm so so excited about this. It's hard keeping it a secret from my family but I know what I want and I'm so ready for this new journey.

Hi Sandy, yes I'm going with Dr. Garcia I'm hoping to go the 2nd week of Oct but I'm waiting for hubbys vacation to be approved. How about u when are you going?

Thank for sharing your experience with us. I'm so so excited can't wait to get my wls hoping to get it done on October. I have a question.......I was planning to pay with a credit card do you know if they can do that? I'm going thru Alma @ ready 4 a change. That can help out instead of taking out a loan

Sure I'll let you know

Hello Sacharliem, I'm still working out my family's work & school schedule but my goal is to have my sleeve w/ Dr. Garcia the same week as you. I'm so looking foward this.
