Oh my good today I realized that I only have 2 months and 25 days to drop 25 pounds so weight watchers here I come I am just praying that I get approved and I mean real quick. I have not been on in a long time at least since last year since I gave up on surgery. Ever since my friend Jessie passed away I have been really scared even though she did not pass away from the surgery. I miss her a lot. I remember when we used to say we have to be there for one another. I know she is in heaven and she is probrably thinking about smacking me in the head because she would be like hey stupid you are going to be ok so give up the nerves and pick up your damn phone. I just hope she knows I miss her and that she was the only true friend I have ever had I love you Jessie!

Today, was my consultation with my surgeon. Dr. Kinni was so nice and very informative. We went over all the different surgeries and which one I would benefit from the most. There was a lot of information thrown at me but I basically knew everything thing that was going to be said to me. I thank this website so much because I was prepared and he noticed that I did my research on the Lap Band surgery. I was informed that this was a process and that there were things that needed to be completed before scheduling a date for the surgery. Some of the things that are required include:
• A meeting with their nutritionist
• A psychiatric evaluation documenting willingness to comply with preoperative and postoperative treatment plans
• Endoscopy
• A huge list of blood work
• A letter documenting that I have tried and I have failed about 5 or 6 diet plans including a supervised weight lost for about 12 months under a doctor or nurse practitioner etc.
• A pulmonary evaluation to see if I would need an evaluation for sleep apnea
• A documented 5 year history of morbid obesity
Overall the visit was excellent and I think it will take at least a month to complete everything that is being requested but I think I can handle it!

Today, I have my nutritional evaluation and it went great! Amy was so nice and she was so informative. I must say everyone at Mount Sinai is professional and very dedicated. I must say up to now I have no complaints, the best thing is that you can walk in and ask questions without feeling bad or feelin as if they are going to get annoyed. Tomorrow, I have my psych evaluation and I also have my endoscopy consultation. I am very happy up to know keep wishing me luck!

There is hope out there! My boss is an a$$ but what ever. I went to the GI doctor he scheduled me for Tuesday at 8:45am to have my endosopy. Dr. Saha was really nice and calming he made just and tried to ease my nerves. I am a little scared but god willing I will be ok.
Todya, I also had my psych evaluation I thought that was funny but scary at the same time. I must say that after I spoke to Dr. DiSimone was kind of strict or maybe it was because he did not know me. After the session was over I felt much better and he was a lot more friendly. I had to pay for the psych evaluation out of pocket but it was worth it!

6/21/2006 Oh god I loved doing the sleep study it was done on 11E26th street in Manhattan done by NYU an it was great I actually could not sleep due to my back but I felt I was in my own little hotel the place was beautiful but all that was missing was a television but I read my cosmo magazines until I fell asleep but the wires were very annoying because I could not toss and turn oh well I am glad I made it through the night.
