  1. Im I Really Ready?

    · Peggylou · 08/30/2012 12:50

    Okay I am 18 days away from surgery. Am I excited? YES! Bit I am really nervous. Im I doing the right thing? Yes! I have to take so many meds for my diabetes and cholesterol plus I have sleep apnea and Barretts esaphugus. I am 75 lbs over weight. So many people say Peggy you can do this yourself just excersise! I have tried and tried. My endo doctor tells me my meds have alot to do with my lack of energy. I am so up and down energy wise.
    My one big concern is how will my body know when to stop loosing weight? I know this may sound silly to some but I see so many people that are loosing 100's of pounds. I am right at 5'5 and 51 years old, Today I weigh 202.
     
    I go in for pre op testing on the 12th and will be on liquids for the week before my surgery.
     
    We have a trip planned on the 20th of October will I feel good enough to go?
     
    im just chattering here I know.. freaking nerves are getting the best of me!
