Well i am 1 1/2 out of surgery and down 34lbs since January. I am happy with my weight loss, I have learned not to compare myself to others because i am already my worst critic. I am still learning and i have not had a fill yet, so my appetite has increased, but i am trying to continue making the best choices until my fill. This journey has been up and down, but the greatest thing is that i am still motivated to keep going.

i had to get clearance from the cardiologist pre surgery. all of the sudden i was in a whirlwind of tests. a nuculer stress tests showed a sick heart in capable of undergoing wls. i had to have a cardiac cath that should my arteries were nice and clean. so wls approved. so don't sweat it right now. most overwt. ppl have irregular hb. hence one of the reason we want to lose wt. chin up it will all work out

JeanZ- you could be right. to me its a little reality check. i had a few test done in the beginning of 2013 and everything was ok, but my number count for being at risk of developing diabetes was high, but who knows what else was going on. i have never had an ekg to even know if this has been something long standing or something gradual since i started gaining weight. i did my blood work again, and it shows that my cholesterol is a little elevated and that has never happened to me before....

soooooooooo.... Yesterday was my first doctor appointment. And I must say, I am so excited. I was a bit nervous, but the surgeon and his staff were awesome. I actually was able to meet the Nurse, Nutritionist, and Surgeon. We had a very long discussion and I felt so comfortable talking about my fears and expectations. I was provided information on what the insurance company expects, and I am excited. Ready for this new way of life. Next month I go for sleep study, 1st nutritionist appt, psych...
