The 1st appointment

Well today after 12 months of saying I'm gonna........I actually did. I had my initial consult with Mr Belmay at The Avenue and after getting over being told i'm morbidly obese I accepted it and moved forward. I weighed in at 163.4 and have been given a goal weight of 90kgs (but will be more than happy with 99kgs). It seems soooo far away but I believe in my heart I'll succeed. I ended up in tears during the consult when I was told if I don't have the surgery I won't see my kids grow up. I must make this work. My kids are my world and I have to make sure that I'm the one that gets to raise them and see them grow into beautiful adults.

Tomorrow starts the Optifast for 2 weeks before I have my blood tests to make sure nothing is wrong with it and that the surgery happens. I have ben given a surgery date of Thursday 13th of August and will make sure it happens then. I don't want to have to wait another day.
