Hi! I'm so excited to be starting this blog. You see, I'm in the mist of a life changing journey! After a lot of thought, research, anxiety, emotional ups and downs, deciding not to have the surgery, then deciding once again to have it, and just flat out realizing that without some help, I can't do this on my own....the decision was made to have the vertical sleeve gastrectomy. I will have surgery on June 23, 2011. This will be the beginning of a new way of life. It will not be easy...it's already hard! I started my pre-op diet yesterday and welllllll, I think I already had my first meltdown. lol More on that later!
I hope this will enlighten some on what a person has to go through to lose the weight using this tool...because it is truly only a tool. And no, this is not the easy way out...if you were wondering! Ha! I also hope that it might give hope to those who are considering this option. And I hope that any of my fellow sleevers, whatever stage of the journey your in, will be able to relate to my struggles, day to day whatevers, and triumphs! God Bless all of you!!!!
Hey I saw you on VST. I started my blog last year when I thought I was going to get lap band. Now I'm getting VSG in late July or early August (TBD). I'm glad to find another sleever on here as most of the blogs I follow are lap banders. I can't wait to follow your progress.

Hey Lee Ann! Thank you for taking the time to read my blog! I do a lot of rambling...lol
ReplyDeleteI almost did the lap band a little over a year ago and my husband was totally against it so it dropped like a hot potato! I was so upset then but now I am so thankful.
I'm going to check out your blog!
