Today I am going to begin this blog to share a journey I am going to be taking! Monday, June 24, 2010, I met with my surgeon to begin the process towards a healthier ME! For the next three months, 10 more weeks, I will be loosing 10% of my body weight to prepare me for surgery! The plan is for me to have gastric bypass. I have been on the heavy side since elementary school. I am not about be skinny mini, just a healthier me, able to have more endurance! I want to see my grand kids graduate high school. Not so sure this body will make that happen! Time is ticking away and I know that this journey is going to be a test. A test for me mentally/spiritually, physically, and socially! My desire for doing this blog is to share these aspects of the journey. My preparation for the surgery and my ultimate weigh loss, my food and exercise choices and the way others receive all it along the way! Trusting this will be a safe place for people to share their experiences and maybe even receive encouragement!
God has blessed me in so many ways and I see this as a way to bless others! Let's enjoy the journey and see where God takes us!
I will post my weight and food choices at least three times a week! We can be accountable to one another!
Here we go!
Today's weight:276.0
