I Finally Got Up the Nerves to Share my Journey - Savannah, GA

Ok so I have been going on this page every night...ok and a god part of the day reading everyone's advice and so I decided to share my journey. I am 36 and I have three wonderful blessings, 15,11,10 and a handsome hubby. I started my journey Sept 26th of this year. I would look at myself every so often in the mirror and think yuck! I am a diabetic and I struggle with weight again. I weigh 200 on a bad day, but my goal is to get to 185 before surgery. Yea...so I'm not doing so good. I started taking my insulin faithfully and changed my eating habits but it seems to be back firing on me! So this week I am going to start my phentermine and do a lean meat and green veggie diet and hopefully that helps. I just want to be able to tuck my shirts in and not look like sponge bob square pants from behind. Oh yea...I'm getting a tt and I'm tossing up a bbl. all of my pre op blood work is done. My a1c was 10 I was not happy with that so I'm working on it. Pray for me y'all! I will post pics of the ugliness later this week.

I was doing more research today and checking out some pics acne I must say the whole necrosis SCARES ME! The research says it happens mostly in smokers...and there's the D word again...diabetics. ZenBodyGoddess you have been such a great help to me :-). I'm claiming you as my RS mentor lol. I am just terrified of not heading properly bc I'm a diabetic. Maybe I need to just stop researching...idk
