Hello everyone....I am preparing for a wonderful 4th of July, and have a July 6th surgery with Dr. Paul Cirangle scheduled and anixiously I am awaiting MY DAY!!!

Last year I met with Dr. Cirangle to discuss my options...gastric bypass scared me due to the re routing and the lack of Vitamins with mal absorbtion...after a challenging year I went in 3 weeks ago we chatted about new options...and after a 4 day pre approval with Anthem Blue Cross we are scheduled and going forward!!

I am 43 years old 5'7" and currently at my heaviest at 268....we shall see where this journey takes me:~) I am a little freaked out about liquids only for 2 weeks, than soft foods for the next...but it is better than this weight in my way!

I look forward to hearing from all of you and I will get some better pics up soon!!
