One step closer

I had my one visit requirement with the dietician yesterday, she explained the rules of surgery and asked general questions about my health and diet. She advised me based on my insurance type, the time in between seeing her and having the surgery is typically 6 weeks, that made me really feel closer to my destination. She told me that the surgeon that's performing my surgery schedule fills up really fast and for me to call ASAP if I'm trying to have my surgery this year, I thanked her we ended the visit and as soon as I got to my car I called and schedule my first visit with the surgeon for oct 22 just a few days away. Once I have my second visit with the surgeon I will be given an actual date, in between time I will need to see a physc once and get some labs done. I can't believe this is all happening so fast, and I pray to have the same success that many of you have experienced. I am so ready to move on to what my life is meant to be. I know that my 38 years of life has been full of struggles and down times, I've had the ability to smile and just play it off and make the world think that my life is wonderful and complete, but deep inside I felt pretty but very limited and worth less because my size is more. I look at these years as a hard learning experience that will compliment and strengthen the new exciting world I'm working towards.
