Nov 20, 2006
I have finally started losing weight, thank god. I am losing 1-2 pounds a week, which is good, i am not trying to rush things. I know that my eating habits are still not the best. I keep telling mysefl that after Thanksgiving i am going to get more serious about this and get the rest of this weight off. Last week was so bad and I still seemed to lose a pound, I am not mad I am very happy so that put me at 214.4. I spoke with a nutrionist at Universtiy Genral Hospital Named Kathryn and she was really nice, so once again I am waiting on UHC, but all in all, everything is getting much better, for right now
I just want to give up

Yesterday was such a bad day for me. I really want to start taking control of my life and my weight loss. I really should have asked whether or not I was going to see a nutrionist but i thougth that was part of my program. Well that no the case and Dr. Siegels's office (the Houston staff) is not being helpful to me at all. Lorena one of the case mangers told me that they dont have people see a nutritionist. But in the back of my mind i am like you should, this is a life changing surgery hello. So I called his office in Port Neches and they were really helpful and they are helping me get the apporval i am needing from the insurance company to see the nutritoninst. I really think the people around me dont understand what i am going through at this point. Everyone thinks i am making a big deal out nothing. Well this in my body and I want to be healthy and I need and want to be taught about correct nutrion, its important to me, i took the first step to have the lap band now i need to take the second step and loose the weight on my own.
