The Journey Begins


I'm beginning this blog to track our lives, but also to document my journey to becoming a healthier individual. Today marks the second step of many to the road to becoming a healthier, thinner person. I confirmed that my insurance choices for 2008 will allow me to have Lap-Band surgery, which will hopefully result in less of me, but around for longer. The deterioration in my knees has caused me to not to be able to exercise and I have become heavier than I've ever been before. My goals for 2008 are to 1) lose 75-80 pounds and 2) plan a cruise to celebrate entering my fourth decade on this planet.

Here are the steps that I've achieved so far, and with the next steps I need to complete:



  1. Attended weight loss surgical seminar - complete

  2. Confirmed insurance coverage - complete

  3. Next step - set appointment with PCP

  4. Next step - set the wheels in motion with weight loss surgeon
