blogs/blog-0461192001373680047.jpgHey reader,

 

I'm 29, so YouTube and google I have grown up with and know when I want info about ANYTHING I just go there and within 30 mins of multiple searches and video watching I feel like I'm well knowledged in whatever I'm looking for...with that I start my journey...

 

I live in dallas, however my surgery will take place in Huntsville (about 2 1/2 hours south) because my mom works there in the surgery dept. I took the afternoon off and headed to town to meet the doc at 4, but he was in back to back surgerys so I was unable to have our "appointment in the office". So I went for my group meeting with the hospital. To say the least that was short and interesting... I have done so much research I swore I answered everything in my head before the doc or assistant could. The lady by us was a southern lady who didn't much care about anything except if she could eat her greens!

 

I have been having lots of heartburn and reflex so the dr wanted to do a scope to look at my stomach, very agreeing I said yes and he scheduled it for 8 am. Took all of 10 minutes but I had to be put under, which I had no idea... No pain involved except a scratchy throat after words.

 

They found a large growth and took a sample to ensure its not cancer, but he told me he wants me back in two weeks for my sleeve, because he wants to remove this (photo attached)

 

Very excited to have this done.... To start the life I want to live but can't due to being over weight....

1. Going shopping in cute hip normal sizes

2. Doing normal day to day things without being overdone 5 seconds into it

3. Boys who may want to actually want to date me

4. No back pain

5. Sit comply in a chair, or airplane

6. Not fear of being looked at for being fat

7. Being healthy

 

 

Any suggestions for my one week liquid diet, and after suggestions please comment...
