  1. Consultation Scheduled! I'm relieved that I finally get to meet with the surgeon but just a little sad that I have to wait until after the new year. I guess that maybe I should be looking at this on a more positive note. This gives me time to deal with preparing getting into a exercise routine and sticking to it, taking a deeper look at what I am eating and how it affects my health, and getting my head in the game mentally for the ride that I am about to take. I already know that I meet the criteria for having the surgery so I am not worried about the process of being approved. God has brought me too far to fail me now. I'm exited, I'm anxious to get started, and I am ready to say good bye to the old me and hello to the new Diva that I know I can be. I'm crying tears of joy because I am finally starting to see the light at the end of a long tunnel. I wouldn't wish being overweight on my worst enemy. Through it all God is good!

      Thank you ladies! I have much work to do but I am so ready. @jane13 I totally forgot about the caffeine because I am a once a day coffee drinker at breakfast. I guess I will have to eliminate the coffee now and I enjoy tea lots of it! I get loose bags of herbal leaves from Mountain Rose Herb which is 100% Organic and combine them to make my own custom blend teas. I usually get Neem, Catnip, Spearmint, Nettle, Yarrow, Motherwort, Hibiscus, and quite a few more loose leaf teas. A lot of what I named also help with my symptoms of PCOS which is why I originally started getting them. I suppose that I will have to get educated on whether they contain caffeine or not but I am assuming that they all do.

      @dhrguru I have my head in the game but I have a lot of preparing to do to ensure that I succeed. I am just thanking God that my husband is on board to make some changes as well. He has type II diabetes but he works out 5 times a week and has already lost over 100 lbs. With his support and willingness to make some minor changes in diet I am sure that we will both reach our goals for a better more healthier lifestyle. You all keep me in your prayers and I will do the same for you.
