Hopes dashed!

Aug 25, 2009

Well . . . . . there is some conflicting information coming from the insurance company.   I have two, maybe three (they can't decide) more months of NUTR that I have to go through before submitting of autho for surgery.   They don't have 5-years of weight history (my PCP is right next door and was done in January but the surgeon's office personnel can't find it)   Plus, they have no report from the Nutriionist.  I have emailed the NUTR and she has not gotten back to me but I'm not worried; she seems to be up on things & it hasn't been 24-hours yet.  

I have also been so anxious about the waiting that I find myself either binging one day and not eating at all the next day because I am so full / bloated.   I am craving PROTEIN though!!   Must be actually following the diet from the NUTR for a good 3-weeks.  Never before did I have to make sure I have breakfast . . .  but now that is a different story.  

Had my first appointment with a new Therapist yesterday and she asked: "how have you been able to keep it all together with all the stressors in your life."    I replied: "what stressors?   It's all comforted & dismissed cause there is food to devour."   I guess that says it all.   ---Back to the new Therapist.   Very friendly, serious and spiritual.  I think this is not going to be very easy cause we spent 90 minutes on the intake with her getting to know where I am at.   I have never had such an intensive intake before so this is going to be tough cuz it is not looking like I am going to get away with much.  

OK, enough blogging for the day.   Get to work Cheri!!!
