Life is good!

Posted 11-14-2008 at 09:57 AM by rondawood63

I am loving life after my surgery on 6-18-08. Life is so good. I have lost about 65 lbs as of today and doors are opening for me (or maybe I am actually opening them since I feel better about myself and not so self conscience about my appearance.) I am really excited to see more changes!

It has been along time since I blogged here. I think it was when I was approved which was May 12th. I had surgery on June 18th and am getting ready to have first fill on July 31st. I lost 20 lbs on pre diet and then have lost 14 since surgery. It is coming off slowly but I am glad of that, it is more apt to stay off that way. I am in LAP-BAND® limbo with very little restriction right now, but use my little plastic rubbermaid containers that hold like 3/4 cup and when the food is gone I stop!...

I found out late yesterday afternoon that I am approved through my insurance. I am so excited. I got a call this a.m. from surgeon's office and have an appt with him on June 5th (1- to pay up! LOL 2-To set surgery date) and then go to pre-admission for all that stuff as well.

I did ask for a Friday surgery date so I can come back to work on Monday.

The reason I asked not to meet with the surgeon until the first of June is my son-in-law is coming home from Iraq tomorrow...

I am sitting here waiting on the insurance company to approve the surgery so I can start my new life! I am so excited about this procedure.

I have had weight issues since I was abused by a family member when I was approx. 10 years old. I guess I decided to hide behind the weight and it would protect me. But it started coming on when I was in the 5th grade. Up until then I was thin. In fact, my mom told me that when I was a baby they had to take me to the doctor because...

Well, my name is Ronda and I have decided to try and have the LAP-BAND® surgery here in Springfield, MO with Dr. Edwards from St. John's. I went to the seminar in Feb. 08 and started the process. I finished the last requirement with them this last monday and now my paperwork has been submitted to my insurance company and I am just waiting to find out if I am going to be able to go through with the LAP-BAND® procedure.

I am very excited about this process and have really enjoyed everything...
