    Yep he said some people do really unhealthy things and will do it right before surgery.

    I plan on that before my liquid diet starts!! Once the liquid begins that's it no more fooling around.

    I got my appointment set up today to see a Bariatric surgeon. April 12th can't come fast enough.

    This particular surgeon is in Covington, La. He will not even see a new patient until they have completed a check list. The longest part being a 6 month supervised weight loss program.

    I am happy to say I'm down 58lbs from just watching my intake and Portion Control. I've started walking and I hope I can keep that up at least 3 times a week!!! I'm sorry I'm just super excited!!!

    @@KGee88 the only thing that has got me worried is he asked about suicidal thoughts. I didn't want to lie so I told him yes but it had been years since it even crossed my mind. Then he asked about did I make a plan & I told no I didn't make a plan.

    To be honest if I truly wanted to go that route I wouldn't be trying to get WLS! I have the means but I got too much to live for. Too many goals not to mention grandbabies!

    Thanks everyone! I think I'm so worried because I just went through a break up and I'm completely devastated. I cry a lot. Funny thing is I haven't turned to food. Some days I can barely swallow it.

    I'm doing this for me and only me. She didn't want to me have WLS at all. I guess you can say I have daddy issues too.....that is what has gotten me worried. I know I'm completely sane most of the tIme. Suicide has crossed my mind a million times lately but I do know that isn't the answer. I have the means to do it and yet here I am still breathing. I have too much to live for & I need to be healthy for it.

    I am ready to make this change. I'm a strong person. Being strong is all I know. I was told this surgery isn't a miracle cure. I know it's not but in my mind I intend to treat it as if it's a miracle cure. My desire to lose weight and to be able to do things I can't currently do out weigh everything else in my life.

    Thanks everyone for the advice and your stories. I greatly appreciate all the advice.

    I am doing mine over the phone! I had to sign up online and set up a date for the phone interview for Friday 11am. I'm nervous like crazy. I really don't have the best support system but I do have many people in life cheering me on. Not sure what type of support other than them being there for me cheering me on I will need.

    I also defiantly have a group of ladies I was in weight loss class with that I stay in contact with.
