Well this morning my hubby went with me to my 3 hour appointment with Dr. Gluck, his Nurses, his nutritionist, and about 8 other people who are scheduled to have their surgeries with in a few days of mine. We talked about what we can expect the 2 weeks on the liquid diet, what we can ,and can't eat the next 5 weeks. We talked about the sleeve, and what was going to be done to us during getting sleeved. Signed some permission papers making SURE we understand any and all the possible risks. That part is kind of scary, but I'm counting on my faith in the Lord to see me through! I start my liquid diet this coming Tuesday, and I know it won't be easy, but I'm sure I can do it!

On another note, Dr. Gluck was VERY pleased with me on the weight I lost these passed 7 months (40+ pounds!)

He said I'm the perfect person to get the sleeve, because he can tell I'm serious about my weight loss and exercise.

I know the sleeve is a great "TOOL" to help me get down to where I want to be, and make it easier to stay there! I know I can lose weight, because I have done it many times, but never more than 50 pounds at any one time, and it never stayed off! The sleeve will help me to continue to eat less, and eat healthier! I'm ready for 2013 to be a great new year, with a great NEW ME! I'll be able to live my life without limits, instead of a life of just existing . Know what I mean? I can't wait to be able to do more things with my wonderful husband of 35 years, our awesome kids, and our super special grand kids! The sky is the limit! Ready or not world, here I come!
