AppRoVeD!!!!

It was hard to decide if this was information I wanted to just share and put out there. Sharing it feels like the best thing to do...
So....
After a long process of different appointments with doctor's, nutritionists' and psychologists' and 2 WEEKS of waiting to hear from insurance I have been approved to have a Vertical Gasterectomy (aka the Vertical Sleeve). It is a weight loss surgery which will be a tool to help me lose weight. The surgery is done laproscopically where they will remove 85% of my stomach. Leaving me with a stomach that looks like a slim banana. It will be able to hold anywhere from 1-5 ounces. I have been going to support groups with my mom which I must say are really helpful. Thanks Mom for all your support and help in this!!!! I am super excited and waiting to hear back for scheduling. I will let you know when I get a date.

TucSoN

I went to Tucson this past weekend to hangout with Randon and Callie. It was so nice to see them. Chelsea came along with me and we spent most of the day Saturday with Callie shopping.
Callie found some super cute glasses... and we were able to go visit Randon while he was studying at U of A on Saturday. It was neat to see where he spends the majority of his days.
We had a great time hanging out and visiting with them!
