Join me on my greatest and most challenging journey in my life "Weight loss, Engagement and Maternity" 😄♥️👶

Life is full of challenges, right from the moment we are born, some are more fortunate than others and after years of putting off any health concerns, it became quite noticeable from 2009 onwards after seeking my doctors advice, we ran several tests and they came to a diagnosis involving most of all bones "psoriatic arthritis mutilans" a rare and very painful destructive bone disorder that went untreated for too long and has caused irreparable damage to most joints in my body and Fibromyalgia a whole body widespread muscular disorder as well as a nerve condition so it makes my daily life quite a challenge especially mobility and exercise and therefore lifelong obesity and it's wide array of problems that come with it well... 😁

After numerous applications for weight loss surgery over 25 years, I was then challenged by the MidCentral Health Bariatrics surgical team on November 2nd 2023 to lose 20kg by February 2nd 2024 if I was to be considered for a gastric Sleevectomy which are only offered to 10 patients per year due to funding limitations and although I said it would be virtually impossible because of how much pain and movement restrictions I have but they said it was to not only prove to us that you are willing to work hard for this operation but to yourself to that the operation is not the "Magical cure" for my weight and pain and this will be the hardest challenge in my life.

UPDATE!

I have been accepted for surgery and will be having the surgery by my 38th birthday
