Well lets see,,, I was into my 2nd month of supervised diet when we were told that my father in law had about 4 weeks to live.. So, my father in law died of cancer... Yes, the diet for 2 months went down the drain... And as always, I feel horrible about myself.  BUt, in October,, the 1st, I am trying to get myself together and jump back on the wagon so I can still get the surgery done.... My insurance days "no large laps" in between the months, so Im hoping 2 months is not considered large..   I cant get the band done until February, so I will stay on the "supervised" diet until then... I was really blessed to find a friend here that gave me some clothes... THANK GOD...MUCH MORE to write,,, to be continued..

I was on vacation for 10 days,, and walked and walked and walked.  I am now down 22 lbs... and feeling good... Now get this,, I can ONLY loss 25 lbs. in four months..... OR, MY BMI is to LOW, and my insurance will not pay for the lap band.. Go figure....

I stepped on the scales today,, and BAMMMM,,, 4 MORE LBS.. I now have lost a total of 16 lbs.  My clothes are so feeling it.. AND IT FEELS GREAT!!!! I just have to remember that I still have alot to loss, and still can not wait to have the lap band... I decided to change my hair color.. AGAIN,,, I got some highlights in it... I will try and get a pic done tonight and post it... Thanks for everyone on my side... to be continued.....

Well,, I worked and walked alot this weekend... I am now down a total of 12 lbs.  Not to bad for 2 weeks..... I started taking the diet pills again that my dr. gave me... so far,, so good...... My friend Cat is sending me more clothes and I am hoping that others from the clothes exchange can send me a few things.   I dont have to tell you about yo-yoing..... I was at 230 1 1/2 years ago and decided to give all my "big" clothes away.... UGHHHHHHH, now... I have nothing for the summer.... Oh well,,,, friends friends friends.... I cant wait to give them back to others...eheheheheh,,, Im kinda in a better mood now.... I still cant wait for my surgery.. just 5 more months of this supervised diet thingey..... yeppppppeeee,,,,, to be continued.............

Well, its day 12 of my supervised diet.  I am down 9 lbs.  and.. still hating it.. I just can not wait to have the surgery.  I know it will go faster then I think... Todays news is,, I had an alergic reaction to my prescription diet pill, so I had to go off of them... NOW,, ITS REALLLY HARD... My wedding 1 year anniversery was this week.... I really do get hope and strength from everyone here... and those that have been giving me clothes has been a GOD SENT...  well,,, to be continued....

Well its day 3 of the old supervised diet.   If you see something floating by your window,,, its me and all the water I have been drinking.... I did get some good news today... My insurance paid for the consulting which was $150 expect for the $18 co pay...  I guess.. if I have to admit it... I am feeling a little better getting away from all the sugar.. OK, I SAID IT... Heres to 6 months flying by and hello LAP BAND...

I had my drs appointment this morning to start my 6 months supervised diet.  Ok, Ok,, Im over it.. KINDA,, thanks to all the friends here that made me pull my head out of my... well,,, you get it.... I went ahead and got the diet pill and will start walking and trying to eat better... Since my last dr's appt. on 2-28, I have gained another 11 lbs..... Stress eating..... Anyway,, off I go to save the world....(I still am hating it)  eheheheh,, Deb.

Well after the shock of not getting my lap band,, like tomorrow, I decided to email Weight Loss Clinic to kinda give them a piece of my mind. After all, I made numerous phone calls to them before I dished out the $150 to go see a nurse to say yeah, you are a candidate.  They were all excited in telling me that my insurance covered me.. blah blah blah.. Of course, that same day the email went out... I get a call from them.... I think what really made me mad was knowing that they probably knew that I would need to have a  6 month supervised diet.. ok, ok, Im trying to get over it... Anyway, after talking to the HEAD something or another,  she said she would try and go to my insurance and get the 6 months waved.. soooooooooooo, even though I should not get my hopes all up.... I AM<< SO THERE!!!! anyway.. I did walk 2 miles Sunday... grunt...

Well, I could say that Im not as depressed, but that would be streaching it alittle bit.. However, I have meet some REALLY nice friends and with their support, I am getting through it.. I talked to my dr. yesterday and I will go in tomorrow for a 6 month supervised diet.  Im so scared.. Has anyone had to do this? and if you loss weight? will they deny you? UGH... I am thinking maybe I should really try this and start walking again.  Maybe I will be able to fit back into some of my summer clothes.. ok,, enough.. enough... I have totally cried to much about this... I am thinking I should go ahead and start the support group in May.... To get maybe motivated... I DUNNO>>>>> Im glad its Friday so that I can just sleep away my Saturday.. YES,  I AM FEELING SORRY FOR MYSELF

Well, i should have known if wouldnt be so easy.  I got a call from the Weight Lost Surgery Center.  My insurance needs alot of things before they approve me.. The 1st is a 6 month supervised diet with a dr.  and a few other things... I am so bumming right now I could cry.  So, I got on the line with my dr. and we will see what can be done.  GRUNT GRUNT GRUNT
