Ugh the 9th is to far away..
I just called my office, to see if i can get the consultation date closer.. No good so i have to wait till thursday.. Im not working out till i weight in i have to be 220 and right now after a trip to the potty i am 215. Dressed lightly.. Ive been looking at POlice Jobs in florida ect cause i just miss the heat. Once i get this surgery and hit 170 Ill deffinatly have the confidence to apply for them. I hope to get this surgery this month any one willing to donate money let me know lol for the nutritionalist fee. lol kidding.. I want to so badly be in uniform and not looked like a typical doughnut eatting cop. I am hopeing to get hired on a department before June also or else i have to go through the police academy all over again. My dream as a police officer is to be a FIT FEMALE WHERE the fellow male officers can feel confident in let me have their back.... I got tough skin, i love working out already i can only imagine how fit i will look and be once this fat falls off and i train the same way if not harder!!! I cant wait ahhhhhhh 7 more days till the consultaiton..

Not Sure If you Want Your Friend & Family to Know??
its not about shame that we dont tell ppl, its about being judged by those who dont have a nose to but in to it with you know? Cause you will be the talk for ever!! I know ppl who had this done years ago and is still talked about... I dont want that, to survive in this world with less drama is to stay out of the spot light and im deffinatly not adding my self to the spot light..

I know this is a tool but....
I keep reading and agreeing, and feeling more and more better about this decision. Mom agrees also that this is right for me. She says this every day on the phone Kellie you work out so much and love sports but your eatting is to much and it hold you back from the weight loss. This is going to do the trick for you, i want you so badly to lose this weight before you have a family and kids to feel like a girl your age should sexy and confident. BRB gotta go to another computer lol

Not Sure If you Want Your Friend & Family to Know??
I have decided im not telling any one, except for my mother, neice, closest friend in florida and maybe my boss if it comes down to it.. When I was going to do this the first time i talked about it and alll the nay sayers was out spoken and had advice. Funny how ppl are all about speaking their minds about something they never delt with" skinny ppl" also funny how they can talk behind your back and not say one word of it either.. Your right to say use this as a tool to help you get through it. As of right now only 4 ppl know of it, one of which is really heavy at my work and thinking it over her self. Im going to keep it a secret by saying im on vacation with my mom, and hopfully i wont be in pain to the point i cant do my walks and wear my gun belt at work after a few days. I dont think I will have a problem. BUt how do you cover up that you finally are loseing this weight after so long of a battle???

I know this is a tool but....
I read blogs and they confuse me sometimes. About dieting and so forth? So whats the band tool really ment to do, if we gotta fight mental food cravings and what types of food we eat. Isnt this what we need to do to lose weight with out the band. So where dose the band being a tool come in to play? I am a heathly eatter, but I eat alottttt like a few days ago i was at this guys house i am talking too and he cooked some rice and beef kinda like chinese. He put only enough to fit on a saucer plate!!!!! This fat girl looked at that and thought omg omg a mouse to stomach all this!!! So I eat it slowly as possible and with much water to be temporarely satisfied. By the time i left I was starving again after like 2 hours the first MC D's i saw i was there!!! So tell me if Im wrong, I want this band because i need help with my portions and hunger. I look at what i eat in size compared to others and Im embarassed. Am i on the right path here?

dont forget weight training adds muscle its a great thing like horse power for a engine. But the down side is you gain weight or maintain before the muscle starts burning fat ect im soooo proud of you

Okay so i finally called back and they said i had to start over again. My first consletation is April 9th, I can get my surgery that month if I wish N im going to do it. I just need help with my fear of surgery ppl!!! Ivenever been under the knife or even a tooth pulled. I admit the fear of surgery and being judged is my worst fears, im not affraid of dieing or nothing just the pain. THe pain of ppl making fun of you having this surgery only my mom, one friend here and this guy im talking to will know about it.. The guy im talking too we have been talking for about 2 months now but known each other longer. We got talking about it with my best friend in FL and he said why dont you do it? we discussed more and he made me feel sooo much better... Kellie
