Got a date

sharon2u · July 16, 2007

Hi everyone just thought that I would fill you all in to let you know that I have a date for surgery and that I was approved by my health care provider:clap2:Looks like it will be the first week in September for me and I cannot wait. I was told that here might be a spot in late August if someone cancels out but I will take the September date for I ahve been waiting a long time for this to happen for me and to start losing weight and getting healthier, my health has always been number one in my book.

I have been exercising getting ready to pump my stereo volumn up and do some dance moves after Im get off the computer. I have been watching my Water intake like I ma supposed to do and I have been on my liquid diet I decided to try it myself to lose some weight on my own before surgery and so far I am down 15 pounds which for me is great. I have my shake twice per day and then I will have my dinner I have been eating fish, white fish that I either broil or bake, no deep fried or greasy foods but then I never was a fan of that stuff anyway. I eat my veggies, no breads pastas and for me being Italian can be hard but I just leave it all be.

So how has everyone been doing? I read as much as I can of everyone comments and all I can say is not to give up becasue there is a brighter side wating for all of us. I remember that my weight did not happen over night and I know that it will not come off over night this is the real world. Well anyway just wanted to let everyone know that I have a date which is great. Have a good one

thanks Julie I am sure going to give this a college try sort to speak. I started out at 270 pounds not proud of that and I am currently at 255 pounds. My game plan is to be 25 pounds lighter before surgery and I thnk I can do it as long as I keep motivated. Sharon
