Before liquids

Memories

Well Tomorrow (DEC 23rd) i will be longing for my father again on his birthday. He was my rock. I love him soooooooooooooo much that ever time i think of him (every day ) i shed tears. I will never ever forget my last moments with him. Sometimes we ask WHY and i have to tell my self never question the lord for he knows why and one day i will see my father again at those golden gates. I pray that what he has taught me as a adult i can instill it in my children and they can learn as much as i did from his up bringing. LOVE YOU DADDY (HAPPY BIRTHDAY )


Liquid DIET SUCKS i am basically starving still having the nightmares of getting protein drinks down my throat. ITS NOT as easy as some folks say it is . I pray my liver is shrinking because my nightmares of protein shakes aren't shrinking at all lolol. I am also on some meds to cure a bacteria that causes ulcers so please pray all this is gone and well on Sunday so i can wake up on Monday and be ready for the change of my life (surgery) .

I have a great support group person (he knows who he is ) . IF it wasn't for his support in this surgery i would of probably already given up . There has been many bumps in my process but i think all the bumps are clear now and i am head strong on this surgery .



Family is doing well Karley was throwing up last night . ARGGG hope she is the last to have this virus. Her birthday is on WED she will be 5 its like yesterday that i thought i would have to bury a child (they had lost her in the hospital ) but she came threw with flying colors. I LOVE YA KARLEY HAPPY BIRTHDAY




Well that's about all on updates

MERRY CHRISTMAS
LOVE ALWAYS
JULIET

I GOT PROOF LOL

Ok you all know my story . Well when i knew the doctor's office sent in the claim to ins I called DAILY sometimes twice a day .............. YEAH I KNOW CRAZY but hey i was going to get this surgery some way aproved and if it took a cajun girl bugging the crap out of a ins company i was going to do it lolol. WEll i just checked the mail today and had a letter from ins sayingi was aproved for surgery HELLOOOOOOOOOOO i know this lolol.


But the best part (or to me it was )
In the fine print of the letter it said they dont cover plastics and good luck with my surgery.

at this point WHO CARES about plastics i just want the dang surgery lolol

So I AM OFFICIAL APPROVED so says the letter lolol

My journey is starting (liquid diet)

Well my diet has started. I get no more food not even a bite. I will starat my vitamins and protein meal replacements today . I am excited neverous and everything else that comes with it . i am hoping the two weeks will come fast and by DEc 23 i will be having my surgery . I am still waiting on INS but doctor doesnt seem worried about them saying yes. He said he will do surgery during the holidays (some doctoers wont) . I pray i am not too fussy while this journey goes. I will miss alot of my favorite foods but i know in the long run it will be worth it at the end.

I will be posting my before pictures soon . I am taking them today when it warms up .

have a great Day

ALL screens are done WOOHO

Ok
I have finished all my screens that were required for WLS. So now its a waiting game for ins to say YES................SO pray really hard THAT THEY DO . i am on some medication which prevents ulcers and acid problems. I also (i am gasping now ) will start my liquid diet on Monday .(doc said ) . So i am crossing fingers all is well . I pray the ins will find that i truly need this if i want a healthy life. I have tried every diet in the book and more and just nothing works for me. I feel this is the option that will help me and teach me a new way of living as well.


Thanks for supporting me in this surgery . YOu all mean alot to me


LOVE
JULIET
