 Well I had my consultation appt. yesterday, and it went great. I need to lose 44 lbs to be at the BMI they want me to be at for surgery. Me and my husband both really liked Dr Follwell. I am very excited and can't wait!

 I am schedule with to see my surgeon Dr. Follwell, the dietician and have my Pschyc eval all done on February 15th. Very excited for these appointments. Wondering what all will happen at these appointments though. So can't wait to see about how long it will take to get my surgery.... So excited....

 Well I went ahead and weighed in tonight and the result is 12 lbs lost....YAY!!!!!!!  Doing a happy dance here.....

 Well a lot has changed since I was last here. We have moved and my husbands ins stopped allowing bariatric surgery. Well good news is he got a better job and our new ins covers the surgery. I have done the seminar and they are processing my ins for confirmation of coverage and they said they should get back with me by Monday YAY.... Then they will schedule me for my consultation. So the ball is rolling again! Bad news is I gaind back the weight I had lost, then lossed it again only to regain it again. I am back on my diet and have been for a week and a half and it is going good. I forgot to weigh till last Saturday so I am trying to hold out till this Saturday to weigh. I can't wait to get the whole new me. I have never been skinny and I cant wait to see what it is like.

Well I lost 4 more lbs, I am so happy! I can't wait to be under that 400 number. Twelve more pounds and I will be in the 300's.

Well we went on a walk around the neighborhood tonight and we went 1.4 miles. during the day today I walked 10 laps around my backyar and ran 2 laps. Tonight I did 30 crunches on my ball and 30 jumping jacks on my ball. Had a good day of excercise today.....YAY!

Well I went ahead and weighed even though I had a bad weekend. Good news is I lost 2 lbs. YAY! Bad news is I just talked to my drs office only to be informed my dr no longer supports my surgery decision. I am so upset and hurt by him. He was all for it when I went in and seen him and now that almost a month has passed and I thought I had the first month of my weight loss attempt under my belt he yanks it out from under me. Now I have to find another dr and start all over again. Of course he is this real skinny man that has no idea what it is like to be overweight. I had always liked him till now though. He always treated me very respectful and I thought took good care of me.

WELL IT LOOKS LIKE WE MIGHT BE BACK ON TRACK FOR THE SURGERY i THOUGHT IT MIGHT BE DELAYED A LITTLE LONGER BUT DON'T THINK IT WILL. YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!! So I have lost 3 lbs as of yesterday which is pretty good. I have been getting in a lot of excercise including a 3 and 1/2 mile walk yesterday. So things are going in the right direction. I also found out my ins does cover the DS but unfortunantely I can't find a surgeon in my area....UGGGHHHHH

Well I have had a harder day today with wanting to eat. I think I did ok though with God's help.  I rode my bike for 15 minutes straight today with no breaks, I was very proud of myself. I should have got a little more excercise in but we did walk around the store for about 15 minutes so I guess that was something. That equals 30 minutes total.

Well the drs office is trying to get all this surgery stuff figured out. They got the info for st alexius from me to get started there. They are suppose to call my ins and get all the in-depth details about the qualifications I need to meet. 
 
Well I have been getting more exercise in and it is wonderful. I feel like I am actually doing something again and not just giving up on weight loss. I pulled my exercise bike out of the garage yesterday and started back in on that. I just need to get started with the resistance training as well. I have been doing really good with my eating and am very proud of myself. The thing I have the hardest time with is not skipping meals. I know this is really bad and tends to overeating so I am trying to work very hard on this.
