I went for THE talk today about weight loss and surgery and all the other lovely stuff that comes with being ... well fat! My doctor gave me 2 choices the LapBand or Gastric Sleeve. He gave all pros and cons and everything that goes with both procedures and I opted for Gastric Sleeve. I am booked in for the 28th March, which is really close and am on the Opti diet to shrink the liver at the moment.
By the time I got home from the doctor it was 5pm and I didn't get the shake mixture because it was peak hour and the roads are chaotic. I just wanted to go home. So I will get the shakes tomorrow morning after dropping off the kids and I think I might buy a new digital scale too!
The doctor was great and he explained to me that most people who lose weight without surgery often regain and often add a few kilos too. I need to have this surgery and so I will say this over and over to myself when I have a meltdown about everything. I have seen other bloggers photos and you all look fabulous! So say bye to the fat! The journey has begun.
Congrats on your decision! Just the decision to take care of your health feels good, doesn't it? Way to go!
