Oh that's right...I don't know where I got 230 from. You should put it in your siggy so it's easier to keep track!

I had orientation today. I'm really pleased with it too. I've been to 2 other bariatric orientations and this one was by far the best! Dr. Fisher was there, and he'll be my surgeon. I go for my surgeon appt in 3 weeks! It seems so fast. Overall I think today went well. My boyfriend came with me and is super supportive. He's even going to do the pre-op diet so he can lose a little more weight and I don't have to cook 2 different dinners for us! I'm a little nervous about the whole thing but I'm also excited. I also got to meet Candra today! It's great to know someone is going through it all at the same time!

[AudsMom 2]

That is great! So glad you enjoyed yourself!!!

Now in 3 weeks try to loose 15 lbs if not more:D It is sooo do able since the beginning is Water weight.. like 10lbs of it.. if not more.

If you can get down a nice number he will schedule your appt with Liz!!!! Meaning, you could be in surgery in 2 months!!!

Let us know if you need anything:D

Oh I didn't take them.........I am working on finding family instead to take them. They ran. foster care is not my first choice but it took me all day to convince my supervisor to try it my way!!! I think I will be sending them back to New Orleans to be with an aunt for a few months!! Win-win for everyone!!

Ah social work at its best!!

I am getting so tired back 2 work already in bed......... Can't stay awake!!! I am way to tired all the time!!!
