I am so excited, nervous, anxious, emotional and much more! After going back and forth with the surgeon's office and insurance company, I received my call this afternoon. I am set for tomorrow. 5:30 a.m. is my check in time. I will be on my way to a healthy, new me. I can't wait, I just want to scream from the top of a mountain! lol! No mountain where I live in Philly. ha ha ha! Glad I have this place to share my joy. It has been a loooooong journey getting to this point and I will make it worth my while. Nothing about this has been easy but I'm a champ. I can do this!!! God is with me 100%!

I am feeling better everyday. I am amazed at how strong I feel. I guess my tough workouts before surgery did help. I must say the second and third day whipped my butt. I refused to give in. I did my breathing exercises and got up on my own to the bathroom and even walked around with my sister. This is not the easy way out like some people say, nothing about this has been easy for me. It's easier to quit than to keep your eye on the prize. Thank you for all your prayers. I will keep you in mine. Take care and remember with God, everything is possible.

Just got to my home and was excited to be able to look you guys up on a big screen =) It is so cool there are so many people on here ... I was sleeved on October 9th ....last surgery of the day man was I nervous ...good thing the admitting department lady started giving me trouble about the amount they were going to collect to admit me ! Hearing NO in my mind helped me get that xtra bit of courage and get in there on that table !!! My biggest discomforts was the naseua ...I joked later who would of know a big ol' 300 pound girl was so so sensitive !!!! I see that girly elephant trying to poke her tow in the Water =)

SO the Nasea & then allergic reaction to Coedine !! ( OMG ! ) were my biggest battles I say even more so than the pain ...which I can feel going away more and more .....

I just freaked out b4 i went on table I weighed 281.5 and today , Sunday I weigh 268!!!that is insane to me !

well just came home to my dirty dirty house ...oh man is it depressing ! after I left hospital I went to stay at my mom's so the kiddos couldnt jump all over me ....but was it hard to come home from Mommy's house tonight! UGH ! FIre the maid who was here =)

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
