I have gotten my referral letter from my doctor this past Friday.  When I contacted my insurance company yesterday, they told me flat out,that under no circumstances was WLS covered.  Anything related to weight loss is not covered.  So I am looking at going another route to help money wise.

Well, it's been a long time since I've posted here.  I had gained up to 267.  Not good at all.  Thankfully and not so thank full, Don has had to go on a lifestyle change as well, due to some medical problems.  The doctor has placed him on th New Atkins for a New You diet.  In the last three weeks I have gone from 267 to 255.  The weight is starting to come off.  Thinking this is what I/we needed.  Starting to feel a little better.  More to come later.

 Down to 244.2 as of this morning.  It's getting hard not to "snack" all day.  Will have to replace that habit with something else.

Weighed yesterday morning and this morning.  Both times I weighed 245.0.  Not bad Only 25 more pounds to get to 225.  I have given myself until November 30th.  With God in control, I will, or should say God and myself can and will do this.

Weighed again this morning.  I know, it's not good to weigh everyday.  But was curious.  I weighed 246.4.  Good start to the day.  Will post more later.  Gotta cook breakfast for COrdale.

  Got back today from Panama City Beach.  Had a very good time.  Cordale and myself are a little burnt, but still enjoyed ourselves.  Didn't want to come home  I weighed when I got home.  I am down to 247.6.  Not to bad.

My Story

I have appoinment tomorrow (3-2-07) with my MD to get started on the path to surgery. I have not been able to weigh in 2-3 years. Last time I didI was at 400 pounds.  I know I am weel above that now.  I am nervous and excited about starting the process.

 

My life consist of taking son to school,home,grocery shopping,and church.   ride in one of those electric carts at the store) and church.  I would love to be able to get out and play with my son,but all I can do is just sit and watch.  I cannot tell you how many nights I have cried myself to sleep,or how many times I have questioned God about my situation(sp).  But after much prayer and talking with husband, I am ready to take this journey.  Will update you all after my appointment tomorrow.
