It's all about me

I have finally made the decision to focus on me and getting myself together. My focus hasn't been on me. I have neglected myself and I am no longer doing that. I have made a life decision to have weight loss surgery. I will be having a vertical sleeve gastrectomy also known as vsg. I will be traveling to Tijuana, Mexico to have surgery. I have chosen Mexico Bariatric Center. My surgeon will be Dr. Alejandro Gutierrez. I am super excited about getting sleeved. As of today, I have not set a date. I am thinking about going in mid August. I will be officially setting a date in less than 10 days.

A little background, I am 27. I am 5"10. I only have 1 child. I am currently 285. My body seems to like that weight. I have lose about 30+ pounds on keto, but of course I gained it all back. I am tried of the yo-yo dieting. I am a homemaker, so I'm home all the time. I am cooking and cleaning a lot, so I really don't exercise. I will exercise, but like I stated earlier, I wasn't focused on me. I am now!! My goal weight is 175-180. I think that is achievable. I am excited and READY!

I want to give you more background on my eating habits. I am not a heavy meal eater. I eat a normal meal. I love fruits and vegetables. I will eat just about any vegetables. I don’t really like meat, I prefer seafood. I am however, a big sweet eater. I can go all day without eating a meal and just snack all day. I like to eat cheesecake, white cheddar popcorn, butter pecan ice cream, and little Debbie snacks. I don’t drink soda. If I have a soda it will be Sprite Zero. I sometimes like flavored water, but I usually only drink water. I like the keto diet because it stops me from eating all that sugar. I see results, but again I don’t like a lot of meat. With a high sugar diet and no exercise, I have dug a hole for myself. I am determined to get OUT!

I don’t take any medications, but I know if I continue on this path, I will be! I do take some natural things such as black seed oil, chlorophyll, and probiotics. I also take collagen sometimes. That’s about it!

I have add some photos of myself in the past few years!

I am so excited! I paid my deposit for my vsg surgery. The deposit was $350. I also went ahead and booked my flight. I will be having surgery August 21, 2020. I only need to purchase my passport and finish paying the remaining balance.
With Mexico Bariatric Center, they offer free webinars with their surgeons about every month or so. With each webinar, one person get $2,000 off their surgery, but you have to use the surgeon at the webinar. Guess who won?? Yours truly! I won! I couldn’t believe it. It was like god was speaking to me. I never won anything, so to win I knew I was making the right decision. With the $2,000 discount, I have $2800 to left to pay. I have paid $350 for deposit to book surgery, so I’m left with $2450.
I am super excited! I know my life will change forever in a few months and I’m ready! I do want to try and lose some weight before my surgery, maybe about 16 pounds.
Well, that’s it for now!
