I was in a panic thinking that I wasn't approved . Since I got the letters on Friday my anxiety lasted the entire weekend until I made the call today only to find out that I AM APPROVED!!!! I am feeling so many emotions at one time I don't know if I want to laugh or cry but it's all joy. On to the next leg of this journey.

This has been a learning experience for me. I have decided to make better choices on what I eat and surprisingly it wasn't as hard as I thought that it would be. I don't have cravings like I use to for bread and junk food. I have replaced bad snack with healthy choices. Who knew that fresh fruit smoothies would kill my cravings for sugar? Now I can't get enough of them. Who knew that veggies could be a free food that I could load up on and actually get full? Apparently not me lol! I had my 30 day weigh-in this past week and with consistent exercise and healthy food choices I managed to lose 9 1/2 pounds. Yay for small victories. Now I wait for the green light. :-)

Hi DivaSoBlessed!! Except for "bum" knees I'm ok. I'll have surgery in 2 wks. 2 days on March 21st and I'm anxiously anticipating that. I'm still not a fan of exercise, though. I guess because my knees and feet hurt so much. I try to walk, but it'd just painful. I've been doing chair exercises and aqua aerobics ( I like doing that) and I even did line dancing! That was fun too!! I have one more appointment with my Nutritionist, then I have 1 week liquid diet. I just pray everything goes well. I'll tryta keep you posted!

Struggling big time...pre-op diet

Lastminute318, I'm pretty good. I just got my notification of approval and I found out that the funding that I need for surgery will be in my hands very soon; so, I'll be getting to do the pre-op liquid diet soon. I know it's not going to be the easiest thing to do, but I need this. As OutsideMatchInside said, take it minute by minute, hour by hour. Soon you'll be post-op and on the Losers' Bench!!! Hang in there, I'm cheering for you!!

I'm feeling hopeful! My consultation went well and he says that I am a good candidate for any of the surgeries but I am choosing VSG. Today is definitely a good day and I hope that your day is too. :-)
