 Hello ladies!  So great to have a group for just us women!  I don't quite have a surgery date but I meet with the surgeon next week and will have my surgery date before I leave the office!  Looks like August!  Anyone who is having surgery in August, I have created an August 2012 Surgery Friends group!  Look it up and feel free to join!  

Anyway, my story isn't much different than everyone else's so I will just keep it short.  I hit rock bottom 2 years ago when I had a pregnancy from hell with gestational diabetes and awful preeclampsia.  It all ended with my little guy coming far too soon, in the NICU for 3 weeks, and I had a horrible infection from the C-Section that kept me in the hospital longer than expected.  I am ready to get healthy and live a normal life!!!

I am required to do a 10 day liquid diet prior to surgery and I will find out more about that on the 26th when I meet with the dietician.  They will provide me with a food plan which will help, but I am nervous for the liquid diet.  I know I can do it, but I also know it will be very difficult.  I'm ready for this.  I'm ready to be healthy and turn my life around.  I look forward to sharing and receiving advice from all of you!!!
