Have made up my mind to go for it....

Dec 26, 2008

I had my initial visit with Dr. Rosenthal about 3 weeks ago. The visit was much shorter than I expected but I suppose it was because I had attended a 3 hour seminar earlier in the day where all questions were answered. I was half expecting Dr. Rosenthal to tell me I was not a candidate for surgery which he did not. I really didn't think I was fat enough although all the research I had done up to that point showed me i was and the scale did not lie. I just did not feel fat enough but I guess I had been living in denial a long time. I have struggled with drug addiction and was in denial a long time with that so why should I think this was any different.

I met with the nutritionist and insurance specialist last week and I am moving ahead. I also met with the cardiologist who is recommending a stress test. I have this scheduled for next week.

I spent Christmas with my family and i kept thinking to myself I won't have to feel this way again next year god willing.
