You look great!

Thank ms shauna! Im usually everyones positive cheer leader and i try to make everyday a positive day with a smile even when theres days i really don't want to. But I'll do my best

So I started my journey in June and I'm totally thrilled and scared. Tomorrow I find out my date for surgery considering I have two months left for the insurance to approve me.(praying) Joining this forum was such a blessing. I've learned so much from everyones experiences and I now feel like the sleeve is a better option for me then the bypass. This is the first forum I've ever joined and it's been so helpful. It really gave me the heads up to what expect. Thank u everyone! But what fears me most is that I won't have my other half to support me and I'll be going through this experience alone. My husband and I are separated at the moment and don't know if we'll ever be a family again. It's been really stressful and it sucks! But all this drama isn't going to make me lose my focus. I believe things happen for a reason and getting this wls is going to be a fresh start to a new successful healthier life for myself and my daughter. I choose life! I'm praying that after surgery I no longer have to be insulin dependent and be able to keep up with my crazy four yr old and have just as much energy that she does.

I'm colombian and salvadoran & just thinking about what I won't be able to eat after the sleeve or even tolerate is a little bumming. (Which im praying i have my surgery by the end of december.) That means no bandeja paisa or pupusas, lol! food brings us together. My family is already talking about what were going to cook for thanksgiving & Christmas!!
