I hear ya'. It is a long road. I have UHC and they require a six-month diet, so I am like three weeks into that. I have a LONG way to go before I can even hope for a surgery date.
Still, I have discovered that having the time to confront some of the issues that have gotten me to nearly 400lbs isn't a bad thing, and I hope to be in good enough shape for surgery that I'll recover better. Had I had surgery a month ago I am pretty sure it would have been pretty hard as even getting up out of bed set my bones to creaking and groaning.
Okay, I will admit it. I'm jealous of your two months! hehehe November 16th is right around the corner! -

it's amazing how just making a decision to do something can change so much...and i haven't even had surgery yet!
it's wasn't until i made the decision to have WLS that i was able to be honest with others, and myself, about where my horrible eating habits come from. looking back, it's not hard for me to see how connected it all was/is.
growing up, while my parents were still married, we were definitely poor. not that i ever realized til years later. my mother, in part from...

my story is one that i have heard so often from people who struggle with their weight. i have never known a time in my life when weight was not an issue. from as young as i can remember, i have been the fat girl. in fourth grade, during our weekly spanish class, we learned our spanish names. mine translated to isabella. by the end of the day i was hearing taunts of "isabella's got a belly!" by the time i was in 5th grade i weighed 135 lbs.

in no particular order....
~stay on top of all appointments to the best of my ability so it really will be "about a two-month process" like the dr. said.
~start walking a MINIMUM of two days a week on the three mile track
~start up with the couch to 5k program...if knees will allow
~begin shopping healthier for the family so it's not such a shock to everyone's system once i'm post-op and able to eat food again.
~get josh on here so he knows why...

I suppose blogging would be the next logical step now that i've joined TT. i'll be getting as much knowledge in as i can beforehand, and trying to prepare myself as much as possible for life post-op, but there are bound to be bumpy times coming my way...i mean, such is life. my emotions are already running the gamut, i can't even begin to really imagine what it is going to be like once i am on the other side heading toward my goals.
speaking of goals...i should prolly set some....
