New Journey

Fast forward from my last post in 2013 to now. That journey has led me to a new one. As my doctor said, "I'm broken". So, I am going to have surgery. Not anything I ever planned on, I said I would never do, but here I am and I'm going to do it. I'm going to have Gastric Sleeve surgery.

I never thought I would have bariatric surgery of any kind. It was too invasive, expensive and too many people failed. But, in my circle of co-workers, there was this person who is much younger, had demons of their own to fight, and the stresses of life that we all have who had changed ther life. How? Gastric Sleeve Surgery. I kept reading their FB posts and they were living life. I kept reading, watching and wondering. Then, at the end of February, I too had decided to take back my life. I called and made my first appointment.

The second Monday in March at 6:00pm I had myself at a Bariatric Surgery seminar. First step in the journey. Even though, my mind was made up, I still listened with an open mind. I learned what all was involved, listened to the doctor, saw a room full of people struggling with the same FAT demon. I was going to do this. I could/can do this.

So, begins this new journey....
