Feb 10, 2009

Hello my OH Family,

Today I am going to have my pre-op testing and educational seminar. I am so excited!!! Yesterday I went to a support group meeting and I learned soo much. I think the meetings gives us an outlet and we learned that we are not alone in the way that we feel. 

I got the change to meet my Angel Juanita for the 1st time and that was exciting!! She is too funny!!. 

Now that I have stop my meds, I am about to lose my mind, I am having bad headaches. But I can endure those headaches because I am looking at the bigger picture!!!

My bestfriend and I have talked about my surgery again and we are going to be just fine during my journey!!! I am glad about that b/c she is truly a wonderful person and I would hate not having her in my life...

My sister  is still a little nervous b/c she is just plain ole worried about her big sis and I can respect that. My sister and I are very close it's just the two of us. My sister and my best friend will both be there on the day of my surgery, along with the most important person in my life which is my princess (my daughter).....

Hello Everyone,

I know it is late but I could not sleep because I have soo many things on my mind. I am wondering if my bestfriend and I can survive this surgery, She has not supported me during my journey and I know for a fact that if she is not there for me during the surgery I know our friendship will never be the same.  Making the decision to better myself with the surgery was huge for me and for the people that I love the most not to be  apart of that really hurts.

I get more support from my new family OH then anything. I have a angel and her name is Juanita, I just love her to pieces. The 1st conversation that her and I had she took the day off from work and will be there the day of my surgery! You don't know how that makes me feel.  Maybe God is showing me that it's time to clean house and out with the old and  I need to make room for the new!!  Don't get me wrong I love my bestfriend to death, and will be hurt if I friendship ended over this. I told her when you truly love someone, you can't pick and choose how you are going to be there for your loved ones, you just do it!!!!  Any advise on how to handle this situation would be greatly appreciated,,

RE: Peace be still

Feb 03, 2009

Hello Everyone,

I had a break through today and I just thought I would share it with you all. I am a true believer that God places people in your life for different reasons.  Today I met a true angel and her name is Juanita. Juanita and I talked on the phone for almost two hours this afternoon, she was so informative and very funny. Right before she called me I was thinking about my surgery and support team or lack there of.

I am so glad I talked to her because she only confirmed what I already knew and that is that God has the final say in all things. I now know that I am not in this alone and I can not wait until Feb 23rd to start my new life. I am lookinf foward to the new healthier me!! My daughter is so happy for me and she is my biggest supporter!! I love her to death!!

I got my date and my surgery is set for 2/23/09.  I can't believe it, I am 22 days away from starting a new healthier life.  I currently weigh 227 pounds and I wanted to get some feedback from other people in my weight class that is has had the RNY done.

I have met a few angels on this site and these two ladies are true angels. They have shared  their stories with me and allowed me to email them a thousand times and ask a bunch of questions. LOL..

Jackie it was such a pleausre talking to you the other day, we haven't met yet but I feel like I've known you for a while. Your kind words really touched my heart and I wanted to say thank you !!! I continue to pray that each day God continue to bless and guide your recovery process.

I should be in the bed right now, so I will continue working on my page tomorrow night. I look forward  to chatting with you all in the near future.....
