The Countdown Starts!

Okay, so since my last blog I really haven't had much to report on. I was just playing the waiting game. However this last Wednesday I had my last meeting with the surgeon. It went really well. I had to see the Exercise Guy again and the nurse to talk about food. Surgeon just basically went over the procedure again. I spent more time with everyone else.

On February the 10th, James had the lapband procedure done. Now I will be completely honest at the fact that I was pretty upset that James got to have his done before me. I have so much more weight to lose! However I am now so grateful that he went before me. I know we are having completely different procedures, and the recovery will be very different. But it's really nice to kind of no what to expect. I am definitely not a girl who likes to sail uncharted waters. Everything went pretty smoothly for James, so I am anticipating a great surgery! I also learned through this how amazing our surgeon is. He came out and discussed everything with me and let me know how everything went. I also really like Baptist Hospital. They were very kind to keep me updated and in the know every step of the way. I do have to say that it was a very LONG day and had I known how long I would be by myself... I would have brought a friend. :)

Well now it is all in my insurance's hands and how quickly they push my paperwork through. We are probably looking at mid March. I can't believe this is really happening. There are so many things I so look forward to. Little things that people take for granted. But of course my main goal is my family! After almost 11 years being married to a wonderful man I am so ready to make beautiful babies with him and make him the daddy he has always wanted to be. And I really look forward to making my parents honest to goodness Grandparents. They are more than ready.

Please continue to pray! That is a huge thing for me. I am so excited beyond belief, but I am starting to get more and more nervous as well. This is going to be such a life changing event. I am so grateful for my huge support team! I have the best family and friends a girl can ask for.

I will keep blogging and letting everyone know what's what and when's when and all that fun stuff. This time next year, you probably won't even recognize me!
