It’s almost time!

So…I started this journey in July.  I hit the ground running and knocked out all of the requirements as quickly as I could.  The testing, the appointments, the support groups.

I did a lot of research.  I found some sites that were helpful and started following those sites -getting more information.

I wasn’t sure what to expect with the support group.  It turns out it will be as helpful as I let it…there is good info and bad…like anywhere.  But it was there, I heard more than one person explain why they chose the surgery they chose – sleeve or bypass.  Until that day, I was pretty sure I wanted the sleeve.  Research and the experiences of others have led me to aim for the bypass.  Because of c-sections, it may not happen, but that’s my goal.

Surgery is 5 November 2018.  I started the liver-shrinking diet on the 22nd.  I have one more pre-op appointment and then it’s show time.

Thanks for joining me on my journey.  Because I haven’t shared with many people, yet, I haven’t put the blog out too many places – but I will.
