Finally having weight loss surgery! My local hospital is finally doing a much safer procedure than the gastric bypass I have been fighting to have for the past four years. It has been a very tough fight for me over the years as my health continued decline. The diabetes, heart attack, mobility issues, etc. Now there is some light at the end of the tunnel . My surgeon wants to see me in two weeks to plan this. I will be going into the hospital next week for an angiogram to assure my heart is strong enough. It is a risky surgery.......but I am tough!

On my salary you'll need to get small enough for Kids 'R Us fashions.

Thanks so much for all your kind words. It is so hard to think of myself actually being healthier down the road. I have forgotten what it is like.
