Patience

Oct 13, 2010

Patience is truly a virtue.  I have come a long way in this year.  I have had ups and downs in my quest to lose 10% of my body weight.  Too bad it isn't as easy coming off as it is going on.

I have met my goals and for the time being the ball is out of my court.  I was given a surgery date of 10/14/2010 before getting an approval from insurance.  This I knew was too fast but I held on to hope.  Well, I was told that surgery date is now pending approval from insurance.  Why the receptionist gave me that date to start with I don't know but I knew it was too good to be true.

Since I felt in my heart that it wouldn't work out fort the 14th I still followed the rules but didn't get my hope too high.  I must admit that I am more comfortable knowing that it is a ways off but possibly now as early as 10/21/2010.  I am not disappointed at all.  I know that it will be soon granted that insurance doesn't deny me.

Strange thing is that I know in my mind and heart that even if I was unable for any reason to have surgery I would be able to lose weight on my own over time.  It mainly comes down to my choices just as my choices have lead me to obesity.  I know what I should and should NOT do.  As long as I make the right choices weight should slowly come down.

I look forward to next year bringing something new and great and exciting but most importantly good health.  That is my focus.  Good health for myself and my daughter. 

This site has given me tremendous support, personal insight and plenty of information.  I don't know if I would have made it this far with out it.
