I've recently decided to join after visiting many times for information along the process leading up to the decision for surgery. Tons of great info and tips. I want to thank you all for that.
It all eventually lead me to the decision in September to go through gastric bypass surgery to lose weight but also to try to better my overall health so I can be there as my daughter grows.
I am disabled and have several health issues that I hope can get better after weight loss. If not, then maybe after weight loss the dosages of my medicines could be reduced cause they tend to do more damage then good. Sadly, many of them are the only ones that work and I'm allergic to many others.
With all that being said, my true journey begins when I have surgery December 10th. I am filled with excitement and nerves. Surprisingly not much else cause ive been on my liquid diet since the day after thanksgiving lol.
I can say I have not cheated and I am proud of that. But to be honest, I think the liquid diet absolutely sucks and is probably the hardest part in my eyes.
Well enough said for now. Nice to meet you all :-)
