My Surgerversary!
This date last year I was 298 pounds miserable and very depressed but I was excited about what was about to happen. I was in the prep area for my surgery. All sorts of crazy thoughts were going through my mind... Would i survive the surgery? Would it work for me? would I actually lose weight? Would I wake up even? Well here it is a year later and I am happier with myself then I have been in a long time. Of course its not all peaches and cream. I am separated from my husband of 20+ years, I am struggling financially flat broke with no job attend school to get my Mental Health License so that I will be more marketable. I am living with my two grown children and one school aged child in a cramped NYC housing project that is getting worse from violence and in need of infrastructure repairs. All of this and more stuff that I don't have time to write but you get the idea..life is not great for me right now but now I have the energy and the strength to fight this battle and win!. I haven't done any real exercise yet and I could be better with my vitamins. I did my yearly checkup and I am anemic and low on b12 I'm not surprised now I take my vitamins everyday and I don't miss a beat. I learned a lot on this journey and I still have more to learnMy wish for the coming year? I want to get to my goal weight and become financially stable...wish me luck.
