Update....getting closer to an appt...

Oct 06, 2009

I havent updated this in a while....

We recently moved to Northern CA.  I had to start the process all over.  It appears that Kaiser has different procedures.  I finally got my appointment with my primary doctor.  She referred me in a heartbeat.  I had to explain to her everything I had been though. 

On Sept 15th,  I went to a 4 hours class and my husband went with me.  He has gone to every appointment.  We saw a video of the procedure.  That same week, I saw the doctor and he advised me of how much I need to lose.  I started at 259lbs.  He said I have to get down to 240. 

On Sept 28th, I started to diet and today I weigh 250....down 9 lbs.  Once I get to 245lbs, I have to schedule my psych appt.  This is going much faster than I had planned. 

In December, we are going to Mexico for a month.  I am nervous about that....temptation.  But I know that I can do it.  My dr. said that once I get to 240, I can schedule my surgery date.  So we will see....

I am so excited...and nervous.
