A Few Tears...
Jun 16, 2010
Well, now I remember why I hate dieting. My PCP has me on phentermine, a 1500 cal diet, and at least 30 minutes of activity daily. No problem. Thing is, I have been following this since day 1, most days not even coming close to 1500 calories and I have been doing anywhere between 30-90 mins of activity. I still am not losing anything, and am back up to 296lbs.
I burst into tears this morning. I can't wait until I get my psych evaluation so I can move forward to the next step of this process. Come on June 22nd!!! 6 more days...LOL. At least my husband is very supportive of everything. My kids are too little to understand, but when they see a skinnier, healthier mommy to play with them I am sure they will be excited and supportive too. 
I do have one question, however. How did you guys tell other family members about your decision to have WLS? Did you wait until you got approved or did you tell them when you were starting to research? I need to tell my mom about my decision, but am thinking about waiting until I find out for sure if I am approved or not. I don't want to get everybody all suped up and then find out it is not going to happen. I just hope she supports me as much as my husband does!!! I am sure she will, though.
