doc appointment

Mar 25, 2009

I went to my first doctors appointment yesterday and I must say that I am so excited. Dr. Lane made me feel so much better about being approved. I was worried that I wouldn't get approved bc i didn't think that I had enough comorbidities. He told me that having a BMI over 40 would be enough but he would also add in my back and joint pain, shortness of breath and depression in too. All in all he was pretty sure that I would be approved. I called his assistant Darcy today and she was not sure if I had to do the 3 months of a seeing a dietitian but recommended it anyway. umm HELLO if I don't have to do it, Y would I? I mean I know it will be good for me but I am ready to get this thing going! But either way I have been fat this long whats an extra 3 months? I just want to start losing NOW! LOL so while she is checking it out for me, I made an appointment with the dietitian for Tuesday. Anyways back to the appointment...my doc said that he would like it if I got down to about 140...but i would rather be around 120. He also said that he was pretty sure that I wouldn't have extra sagging skin, which i am excited about. So this coming month I need to get all of my testing done and then once the dietitian appointments are out of the way I will be good to go as long as my insurance pulls through! I am praying that everything goes smoothly! anyways I will update later when I hear back from Darcy!
