hey all. i've been wandering around the internet aimlessly, popping in and out of different forum looking for others like me. i am a bit of an introvert so it can be hard at times to share my story. i have been in the process of trying to get approved for surgery for 5 very long months and have FINALLY been scheduled for a december 30 sleeve. i'm super nervous but have a very supportive husband who tries very hard to make things as smooth as possible for me. my decision to have this surgery has been ongoing for 10 years. in my 20s i started the process only to have my than boyfriend tell me it was stupid. hance one of the reason we are no longer together. so now in my 30s with a 2 year old daughter i have been told that i will have major diabetic complications in 5 years. its very rough to have you mortality spelled out for you. i decided i want to see my daughter graduate from high school and i needed to do something in order to make that happen. and so here i am.
