My name is Stephanie and I've just started my journey into weight loss surgery. I'm so excited to finally take control of my life and I know that this surgery will be a wonderful tool to help me on my way.
Currently, I am jumping through all the hoops to make my insurance company happy. I'm almost done, I only have two more months of nutritional visits to go. I'm hoping to have my surgery sometime in July/August. Meanwhile, I'm still researching anything and everything pertaining to Gastric Bypass. I want to know what to be prepared for and know what to expect before and after the surgery.
Today, I am learning to cut back on my sugar intake, which has been a real struggle and I've completely cut out all soda's and drinks with sugar (huge accomplishment).
I am married and my husband is my biggest fan and supporter. I don't know what I would do without his support, I am so blessed.
