Time to get ME back!!!
Well, I'm back. Never thought that I would be able to say that. I started this journey back in 2009 and I cant believe that its been 2 years. I was more of a lurker that posted occasionally, but I was on this site several times a day researching and meeting new people. Well, I was well on my way to RNY surgery and I was so excited and busy trying to make my dream a reality that I was not paying attention to my cycle. Just before I was ready to pay the fee to request insurance approval, I realized that I was starting to feel nauseous and my period had not shown up. " Oh, you have got to be kidding me!" " There is no way I'm pregnant 'cause I'm about start my journey to becoming thin and healthy!" My pregnancy was confirmed in early November of 2009 and I was devastated. To say I cut up in the doctor's office would be an understatement.
Two days before Thanksgiving and one hour before arriving in Pittsburgh, my husband and I finally talked about having another baby. I guess we were both in shock. We gave each other a pep talk and just before arriving to my mother-in-law's house, we were having another baby and it was OK. One month later, we found out that we were having twins. Double wow!!!! Fast forward to 26 weeks and 5 days, which was when I went into pre-term labor and had Johnathan and Jacob. They were 1lb 14 ounces and 1 lb 13 ounces. The biggest scare of my life. I have never been so worried and scared. My babies spent 66 days in the NICU and came home on oxygen. I think back now and wonder how I got through 2010 with all that was going on. My main concern was my children.
Now that my babies are healthy and almost two years old, I feel that it is time to get back to ME! Getting back on OH has been my first step and I look forward to continuing this journey................

Yes, I am still looking to get the surgery with Dr. Macik. I need to give Robin a call and see if I need to start completely over or what. I'm pretty sure that I will need updated psych and nutrition evals.
I do see that the activity is very low. I was wondering where everyone went because the forums used to be much livelier in 2009.
