So stressed out

GO TO THE APPOINTMENT!!!!

I know it will be difficult with two little ones to care for but you can do this!  Chances are by the time you meet all the requirements for surgery your baby will be walking.  I had my VSG last Wednesday and was back to work this past Monday.  I was afraid and still am a little scared that I will be one of the few this doesn't work for.  I chose to go for it because it definitely wasn't going to work for me if I didn't try.

Go to the appointment and just hear what the doctor has to say.  I wish I would have done something like this when I was 27 and my kids were little.  We (my kids and I) have missed out on so much because I was too tired or uncomfortable in certain situations.

GOOD LUCK!!!!! 

How did it go? The first appointment?

I actually haven't made my first appointment yet. I had just called and talked to a nurse to find out some more information. I decided to wait until after the craziness of Christmas is over, then I'm going to make an appointment with the surgeon that is closest to start things off. I'm still a little on the fence about what kind of surgery I would like to have. 

Yes, it's scary to think of volunteering for surgery.  But it's the best decision you can make.  Others don't understand,  how difficult it is to be fat.  Those little  daily annoyances  of being fat--get in the way of life.  eg. getting out of a chair, going to the bathroom, bathing, buying clothes, etc.  You will be so glad you did it.  The weight will just melt off and you'll begin to love yourself, again.
