11-24. Well I started my classes for weight loss surgery. It was hard to be in a class after I spent a very long day at work. I learned some new things although I felt very awkward in there. I felt like everyone was looking at me. I know because my legs are so skinny and my boobs so big that people don't think I need the surgery. What they don't know is the fat around my stomach is going to cause me to have a heart attack. And the insulin resistance is enough to make anyone with diabetes go crazy.11-25
The pop thing is hard but I only had two yesterday so that is good. I also think I will start my elliptical tonight. I have it I mine as well use it. I also have the wii with many different workout videos. I think the strength training will be the most important for me. I think I am very weak.

Well its turkey day. What more is there to say? Personally I wish I could crawl back in to bed and stay there all day. I have been doing so much surfing the internet on weight loss surgery. It’s crazy. It is also hard to know what to believe and what not to believe. I have also been trying hard to stick to 2 pops a day next week I will try to stick to one on most days. This is probably one of the hardest things I will have to do on my journey. I love pop. It’s not worth being sick or unsuccessful. So I will give it up. I'm going to give it my all. Yesterday I had my appointment with the weight loss psychologist. Personally a waste of time and money but I guess it was necessary. So I had to go and spend 15. What do you do? I'm going to start doing more strength exercises. That seems to be very important after surgery. I guess the healthier and fitter you are before surgery the better you will be after.
Sometimes boys are stupid. Why do they make things so complicated? Who knows?

Well I haven't written for two days. I know that I am suppose to everyday and I love journaling so that is not really a problem. The reason I haven't been able to write was because I got in a car accident on thanksgiving. I spent the night in the hospital and had to go back Friday for nausea and vomiting. So I got home from the hospital at 5 got home at 6 and then straight to bed and I didn't wake up till 11 today. Must have needed some rest. Anyway I'm really sore and have been lying in bed all day. As I'm lying here I have been watching some YouTube videos on weight loss surgery. It is very interesting. It scares me sometimes and I think to myself am I crazy? Should I really do this? All in all I'm sure that this is the right path for me and I know there is going to be some hard times with it. So I will have to deal. I'm looking forward to changing my life.
