My consult is scheduled! and the heart tests are in..

Jan 21, 2010

Yay! After filling out a mountain of paperwork I got my surgery consult. I know that there is a long road ahead and that this is only the first step but it's in the right direction! I'm so excited I can hardly contain myself. I'm just hoping and praying that my insurance will approve it. I am counting down til Feb 2nd   
 
My husband on the other hand is more nervous than anything. I don't think... no, I know he don't understand how it feels to struggle with weight. This is a man that can, and does, sit down with a jar of cake icing and a spoon and eat the whole thing and never gain a pound. Makes me sick! And would literally make me sick if I tried that. Even with eating all his junk he still has a 29-30 inch waist! BLAH!  I know he don't care about my weight, and he's been behind me for all the crazy diets I've tried, but I wish he could feel what it is like to be overweight, emotionally and physically.......

I did get the results from my tests yesterday.  Everything looked good except for my high BP and I have a leaky valve in my heart. Nothing they are going to do anything about at this time... if it gets worse then they will reassess. LOL I get to wear a nifty heart monitor/recorder for a month! Not sure how I'm gonna do that.....  But I'll deal with it.
