Finally Getting the Shape I've Always Wanted. Dominican Republic, DO

Hello to everyone that has been following my journey. I did go through with my surgery on July 15th, and I do not regret anything. I'm not going into every detail of my surgery and recovery, but I will answer any questions that anyone may have. These are my most recent pics ( last week). I will say Dr. Medina and her team are Awesome!!!

O.k. ladies a few of you may think I'm crazy, but I want to gain a couple lbs before my sx. Never in a million years did I think i would be saying that, but I am. Let me explain... I weigh 168 lbs and I'm 5'7, which means I'm on the tall side so I look smaller than that. I never wanted to be skinny, just thick and shapely. I was trying to maintain my weight at 170 lbs, but I'm still dropping lbs and I'm not trying to! I just cannot eat enough food because of the gastric bypass I had. Im going to lose my freaking mind with all the stress I'm going through. Im worried about my iron level, my weight, my job is driving me crazy, and Im still nervous as hell about actually having the sx. I know I'm rambling, but I just needed to vent. So thanks to those who took time to read about my issues. I welcome any suggestions, encouragement, feedback.. my sx is less than a month away!

Sorry didn't mean to submit last post, I'm typing with my left hand and I'm actually right handed...this sucks. Anyways I was saying I'm getting my first infusion right now. So far so good. Oh good news is I asked Dr Medina if I can get hemo to at least 13, will she do sx and she said yes.Normally she requires a hemo over 13, but since I had a gastric bypass my body doesn't absorb iron like it should. I am healthy so I'm going to be o.k. Hopefully the infusions work,I have 29 days before I'm scheduled to fly to the DR. I need all the prayers I can get.
