This has been a crazy week for me. I have just one week left before I go to my psychiatric evaluation appointment. I am excited but, a little bummed. My dieting has been horrible. Ever since I had the radioiodine treatment for my thryoid I have no energy and I feel hungry all the time and tired . But, my surgeon told me that this was something that I needed to take care of before surgery. So basically my hormones are all jacked up. I wont be able to start any medication until the end of November.  I am trying to stick with my weight watchers and I feel like I am not getting enough. My treadmill  went out  so now I haven't been able to walk. Especially now that the time has changed it is way to dark to go out and walk. I am hopefull that each day will get better.

After waiting all these months I finally have my appointment to see the phyciatrist. I am hopefull that I will at least have surgery sometime after the first of the year being that after that appointment I have heard that people are put on a waiting list for a surgery date. But that still gives me time to get this extra weight off. Anyone with ideas please send me an email on any advice for this appointment. As you all know I am going through the process at the Kaiser center in Fremont. God Bless and have a great week.

I am 40 years old and have three beautiful children ages 20, 16, 14 month old. (wow) you may be saying to yourself. I have pretty much been overweight  most of my life especially after having my first child when I was 20 I was at that time 150lbs. now I am up to 258lbs. I have tried different diets and even diet pills that didn't work and  I have even gone to Weight Watchers more than a dozen times at one point I had lost a total of 50lbs and I gained it back plus more. I am hoping to have surgery to gain my life back. My goal is to be healthy and live long so that I may see my youngest grow. I am fearful of being too overweight and dying. I am looking forward to the future and the changes that it will bring. I believe that this choice is the best choice I have made and I am ready for the challenge that it will bring.
