Update and another Fattie AA

Jun 17, 2011

So, I hate eating healthy.  I have been doing so well and I've only lost about 6lbs...WTF??  Grrr I hate scales.  Anyway, I went to the pulmonologist on Tuesday only for him to refer me to have a sleep study.  That angered me to no end.  I'm fat and snore when I'm super tired and that equals a sleep study.  Double GRRRRRRRR.  Well he is the doctor so of course I will do what he says.  I had my annual exam this week, so the results will be in for that soon.  My facility makes sure you are cancer free before surgery too.  I filled out FMLA paperwork today to protect my job at the place I hate working...there aren't enough hours to go into all of that...lol.  All in all it was a very productive week.  I meet with the NUT on Monday so he/she can tell me everything I'm doing wrong.  Next week I also see the head doctor and get an ABG and PFT done for the darn pulmonologist.  By the time this is all said and done the appointments will be just as costly as paying out of pocket for surgery! 

Now let's talk about Fattie AA.  Maybe I'm just insensative, but I really thought I was going to a support group and going to get something out of it that would help me on my weight loss journey.  NOPE.  Instead what I have gotten out of the past two meetings is that people like to talk about their personal issues WAY too much.  Maybe it's just me, but whatever takes place with your therapist should stay between you and your therapist.  People are using these meetings as an additional therapy session instead of a way to share ideas, recipies, and uplifting ways to do better with WLS.  I don't think I will be returning as my free time is very precious and I'd rather be home with my lil man.
