Welcome!!

Welcome to my blog, I have chosen to blog my journey of WLS in hopes of helping others, going or hoping to go through this journey. My journey started in 2007 when I finally made the decision to call Dr. Forgione's office for the information packet. I then scheduled myself for the informational meeting in Aug. 2007 and then began a long 6 month journey of weightloss. Only to find out my husbands insurance company did not approve the surgery in May 2008. I got my own insurance through a job in Aug. 2009 and restarted the process and was approved for surgery in Oct.2009 and had surgery on Nov 25, 2009. I chose the Realize Band, for the main reason the port is low profile and larger, compared to the LapBand system. But its a choice that is individual and I recommend you do your research.

1 year 6 months Bandiversary

I just cannot believe it's been a year and a half since my surgery. I have had some trials and tribulations on this Journey, however I would do it all over again. Recently I have had .75 cc's removed due to severe reflux issues at night. I am feeling much better.
I am down to 173 pnds to date I have officially lost 100 pnds since surgery. Yeah me!!
