Well I went to see Dr Hutcher today.He explained his procedure and answered any queastions me or my husband had.He is a very humerous guy and I love that except,when he would wisper something to me as a joke and I would have to say WHAT (Im hearing imparied and where hearing aids).He gave me my pre-op diet to follow well stupid me never asked when should I start this..lol
well good news I somehow lost around 11 pds from my first visit with barbra till yesterday and Im not sure how that happened except maybe my nerves and stress from worrying about surgey.

On my way!

Well I don't have a long story on getting started here.I went in to see my Doctor because I had fallen and was having some really bad hip issues.She feels most of that is to due with the weight.During that same visit I had a blood pressure of 189/111 boy we where shocked.So I had to go back everyday for 5 days to see if it truley was a high blood pressure problem,which it was.They started me on one drug then another 5 days of checking it then another drug then another 5 days of checking it then yet..you guessed it another drug and another 5 days.After 3 medications and over 25 days going back and forth everyday they finally got it to a good point.It was then that she asked me if I ever thought about gastric bypass.Boy did I..I was researching it for so long I new more then she did..lol..but I never had that 2nd  thing to go by as my insurance wanted only the obese part.So she sent a referal over and I got it within a week to go see Dr. Hutcher (well to attend a meeting).I followed what they needed me to do ,got me physic exam no biggy at all,I actually think I annoyed her cause Im a talker..lol..went to the nuetrionalist and then to see the nurse practioner.They had everything they needed and submitted it to my isurance and in 5 days got a letter saying approved..called up and got a date of November 14th for surgrey.wohoooo..I go see Dr Hutcher on Oct 19th then pre-op and my physical on oct 31st then my long day of meetings on nov 1st.After that I have no clue if there is more but I know it will be the longest two weeks to wait for this surgery.
