I changed my appt to 1/16/13 with Dr Ariel Ortiz. (Obesity Control Center) in TJ. I decided on the sleeve instead of plication. I am over my need to have a food funeral and am on my pre op diet. I could not believe how obsessively I was eating.

I am looking forward to the new year and finally taking care of myself and getting healthy!

I totally get the obsessive eating! It was unpleasant but i was doing it anyway... I started my preop today even tho my surgery is in March. I'm trying to lose 50-60 lbs (safe and healthy) and get my BMI under 50.

I can't believe I'm having surgery next month. I'm still nervous about traveling alone and know that I will miss my husband so much. I wish he could go with me. It seems that everyone who has a surgery date near mine (2/22...arriving 2/21) will be leaving when I get there or just coming in as I'm heading out. I hope to find a buddy soon.

I've been out of control eating during the holidays. Glad they're over! Now I just need to focus and get healthy. The big 4-0 is right around the corner and I have a slam'n dress I bought that I want to fit into and look smok'n in.

I just purchased a new carry-on and tote bag for my trip to MX. I can't wait to start packing it! I guess it's the little things in life, huh?

I know how you feel. It doesn't seem like anybody will be in TJ the same day I am getting surgery. Plus, I will miss my husband so so much. We never go anywhere without each other. Just to work :-(

Thank you for your kind words of support. Today is the big day. We head to the hospital in 3.5 hours.

I rode in from the airport with two gals - one had lost 200 pounds in less than a year with VSG and was here to help her friend. Helps me to keep an eye on the prize.
