Hello everyone.
I am almost finished with my "To Do List" and then I will be calling my doctor to see what is next. Scheduling surgery date and pre-op appointment, then 2 week liquid diet from what I understand.
About me... I am a single Mom. I have three kids. My youngest one is now 18 and graduated during this COVID nightmare! I am very proud of her. I also have a 20 year old daughter and 27 year old son. I have raised good kids.
Now, I am taking time to concentrate on Mom. This is something that has been neglected over the years, as putting my children first has always been my priority. So this is a very new and interesting journey into self. I have found it kind of tricky to do all these things during COVID. I am hoping I will be able to get my surgery. I know that in the beginning of COVID they cancelled elective surgeries, I am afraid of that happening to me.
In less than a week I go to my appointment to get clearance for my sleep apnea, which is one of the last things required. Aside from attending support group meetings. Which, during these times... WHERE DO YOU FIND THEM? I think I have been pretty resourceful and checking into forums and chats and such.
I am hoping to get the sleeve. I am only one pound away from my pre-surgery goal weight.
Just anxious to see what is next and get input from others on what they are doing for themselves.
Helpful hints, things to avoid? Feedback/advice welcome!
