Approved!

[acuri08 28]

Hi all! I am excited to announce that I have gotten approved by insurance for my surgery date of January 13, 2016. Now that I have insurance approval I can finally breathe for the first time since starting this journey. My current weight is 277 and I am a 5'4, 21 year old female. I love reading other people's success stories hoping that I too can be successful. This may sound crazy, but my surgeon does not require a preop diet. I just can't eat after midnight the night before. I feel like I am already cheating by not needing the diet. Now that my surgery is less than a month away I am trying to be more conscious of my eating habits, and I'm trying to refrain from drinking Water while eating (which for me is literally impossible). I plan to blog throughout my journey at gastricbypass2015.wordpress.com. Hopefully, readers can hold me accountable to that. I would love to talk to anyone on here about their journeys, especially young people like myself. Everyone says my skin will bounce back because I am young, who knows how true that really is, but I am curious to know. Good luck to all those pre and post op on their new leases on life.
