I had my 6th and final weigh in today. I lost 2 more pounds. Over all from my original high weight of 440, I'm down' to 370. I impressed my doctor with my holding steady with the weight I lost during this 6 months and getting my sugar down to normal level. My blood pressure jumped a little bit but I was so tense today its a wonder it wasn't sky rocketed.
So now the final crunch begins. The 6 months of notes are to be faxed to the surgeons office and from there I'm not sure exactly what will go on but I've met all the requirements for having the surgery finally.
I'm a nervous wreck. I'm scared to death I'm going to be rejected and I'm scared to death I'm gonna be accepted lol.
My step brothers mother had the surgery the end of January and she's up and active and apparently not having problems. I hope to get in touch with her soon so I can actually get to talk to someone thats had the surgery. Err I mean as in so soon after.
Say some prayers for me please cause now its down to the wire and I really need everything to go smoothly. I am dealing with other issues that have me totally stressed out to the point of depression times.
Not sure when next update will be but there should be more as things will start moving along. I'll more then likely begin writing a lot more after the surgery.
More to be written later.
