This is my journal that will chronical my journey towards discovering who I was, and what I can now become. This summer I plan on having gastric bypass surgery. After years of depression, anxiety, increased health issues and just purely being fed up with life, I spent time questioning, wondering and praying about what was causing all of these issues and what I needed to do to turn things around.
I have this amazing daughter, and these beautiful, smart, sassy and funny grandchildren who I want to see grow and prosper. The way things have been going both emotionally and physically, I knew it was time to seek change. I suddenly woke up one day determined to reverse my downward trends and to take control of my life. After more praying, researching, crying and days of despair, I began to read about bariatric surgery. The research began to consume my time. The more I explored, the more it became clear that I needed to seriously consider this surgery.

The next step was to find a doctor in-network for my insurance. I was excited to find that my preferred hospital has an excellent bariatric program. I watched a orientation video presented by my choice of surgeons and thus began the process.
