It's been another long amount of time since I last wrote. Ugh. I don't know why I can't seem to remember to blog! LoL Anyway so much as taken place but I'm going to just talk about the most awesome of all.
I have begun to take the steps to have the Gastric Bypass done. I have come a long way already but now I am at the point to where I have to fulfill the insurance requirements which are taking 6 weight loss support group classes. The only down side to that is the classes are only once a month. I've already taken the class in December so my projected time to get the surgery done is somewhere around May or June. I'm so so happy but I'm also a bit scared. People have said I'm taking "the easy" way out to lose weight. But honey, let me tell YOU! It is so NOT easy. There is NOTHING easy about this choice. For instance, two week prior to the surgery I will have to be on a liquid only diet as well as 4 weeks after. Does that sound easy to you? Or how about saying goodbye to lots of certain foods for the rest of your life? Or what if you're not a regular vitamin taker (which thankfully I am) and now vitamins are VITAL to your existence!
Those are just a few of the things off the top of my head. There is so so so sooooo much that goes into making a decision like this. It's not just a one day fix all. It's an entire lifestyle change.
I'm excited and I'm ready.
I started working out with Team BeachBody a few months ago, was doing pretty well. Then I got sick and fell off the horse. But, I finally got my big ass back up! I have to at least lose 20lbs by the time my surgery gets here, but really I'd like to see if I can lose more. Every bit helps.
My friend and I are going to be doing a Transformation Diary together and I'm so excited! It's nice to have someone who is going through the same thing and will understand exactly how I'm feeling and what I'm dealing with.
Roman is doing so well. He is such a blessing. He is healthy, smart, funny and such a cutie! Anthony and I have been living together for just about a year now! I can't believe it! It's gone by so fast. We don't fight either! I never knew it was possible to have a relationship in which you didn't fight with your partner! Anthony & I are so happy together. God really blessed me with him. It should be illegal to be THIS HAPPY.
My goal is to keep up the blogging (FOR REAL!) as well as Vlogs! Anthony bought me an Android for Christmas and taught me how to do videos and post them to YouTube. So my diary of this transformation is about to be on & poppin! ;)
*I wanna give a special SHOUT OUT to my Step-Son, Malik! Today is his 15th Birthday! He is such a wonderful person, I love him soooo much!*
Anyway, I hope each of you who reads this will have a fun time reading about my journey and maybe even become inspired yourself!
