Begining my WLS journey.

Jan 18, 2010

I have begun the journey to find the woman I used to be.  Somewhere underneath these 319.5 lbs is the woman I used to be.  When I was younger I was always thin.  I wore size 1 or 3.  It wasn't until I was about 22 or 23 that I began to gain wieght.  People that knew me back then, talk about how little I always was and how bubbly I always seemed.  What happened to that happy little person.  She is still there and she can't wait to get out. 

I am day 8 into my liver reduction diet and the carb headaches are killing me, but I have not cheated once.  I am eating only lean meats, veggies, eggs, cheese, and 2 servings of milk a day.  Not the most delicious meals, but I am trying to rethink the purpose of food.  Food is now a necessity of life, not a pleasure of life.  I eat it to survive not for entertainment or to make me happy.

Hopefully I will have my surgery the end of April or the begining of May.  My goal is to be 150 lbs by this time next year.

Wish me luck.
