Today is a great day to blog. Hurrican Noel winds & rains are outside on LI so the comupter is a nice place to be 
Well, i started my WLS journey actually some years ago, but got side tracked with LIFE 
met my darling hubby 
got married & started a home, new job, 9/11 happend etc.
As i have gotten older, i am eternally 38 
... my health is not great, BP, heart issues, etc are taking thier toll. My sister & I talked seriously abt WLS (Lap & GBS) back in April07, she sucessfully did the LAP in Oct07 and is doing well. So i finally got my engines going & said ok, lets get this done. My personalty is, once i get an idea, I persue with a drive 
so let say within 3-4mths i have completed just abt all of the tests & working on getting the approvals done, to send everything off to the insurance company for a date..
Why do i want to do this surgery? My health is the main reason, the other parts abt being skinny etc, to me is gravy. I really want to be off all my medications and just live longer.
Sometimes (recently) i do feel a bit apprehensive on getting WLS done. but as i read on the OH boards, its a common thing & its ok. The life changing eating etc after surgery does not bother me, but i just want to make surre all goes well.
so thats it for me........thanks for stopping by
