About Me

So I get asked, " Nyree, why are you doing this?" Well, I found myself working three straight weeks of 12-16 hour days during Hurricane Sandy. Meals provided, snacks and energy drinks brought with me to keep me awake all day and night. During that three weeks, I gained 30 lbs. I was already pretty heavy and that just added to it. One night when driving home from work, I found that my stomach was driving for me. I sucked it in all the way home and cried myself to sleep. The next day I went to work and on my breaks I researched my local hospital's bariatric program. And here I am lovies. Starting this wonderful trek to finding the real me.

Anxious

So I called the girls back that do the scheduling and taking care of everything related to the surgery. I was nervous and anxious when I left the messge for a call back when i was available. Then they called back.. nurse phone consult is on 1/24 and 1st consult with the surgeon is on 1/28. Im scared nervous anxious and relieved all at the same time. I have been searching for and reading other people's blogs about their surgeries. It scares me to think of some of the bad things they had happen. But I know i cant let that deter me. I need this now. Im at the point that I dont want to become a full diabetic. I dont want to die like by grandmother did at such a young age. ( 59) I want to enjoy life instead of hiding because its too hot to lug my fat sweaty ass outside. I want to enjoy my dog while he's young. I want to do more than work and sit on my ass. Im tired of being fat. not lookign nice when we go out. feeling embarassed when people tag me in photos on facebook. Just plain tired. So here we start the countdown to October's tentative surgery date. <3
