First Major Round of Appointments Today

Sep 30, 2010

Today was my first series of appointments in preparation for WLS so I was excited to finally get things going.  Because I live about an hour away from my surgeon, they were really great about grouping appointments together so I make fewer trips.  I got up about 4:45 am to make the drive for 7:00 fasting blood draw.  There were about 10 people ahead of me, but it went pretty quickly.  After that, I could finally have my coffee that I had brought with me along with yogurt. 

As soon as labs were done, I booked over to the physician's office to check-in for the Welcom Group session.  There were four other ladies attending as well.  Filled out some more paperwork before being taken back with the others for discussion by the nutritionist, physical therapist and psychologist.  It was a great presentation.  After a break, it was time for the psych questionnaire, eating profile questionnare, height/weight, EKG & pictures.  I got done about 12:30 and headed home. 

Monday, is sleep study appointment with a take home test which I have to drive back the next day.  Things are moving!!!
