My Story...cont
Oct 17, 2007
WOW...this isn't easy. I keep wanting food and thinking it will be the last time I will eat it! I have started to use my "blue books" for tracking my foods. I'm hoping once I get going on that I will see how badly I am doing and make some corrections. This emotional eating is killing me. Hungry? What's that? If I keep grazing I won't be hungry. SMALL STEPS SHARON!! I go back to the doctor's in 3 weeks. I can do this!!! I will find the way......
The Story Of My Life.....

Here we go....
I had my first appointment with a surgeon (Dr. Kim) October 4th. All went well. I had my PCP do an EKG and bloodwork so I had that to take with me. I was set up last week to do my nuclear stress test...boy...I don't ever want to have to do that again. It was pretty intense even if the hard part was only 4 minutes. Thought I was going to die! I don't have my psych eval until November 13 with Dr. Hayes. Trying to pull out my winter clothes today and get them all laundered. It's about 53 or so today. I am ashamed to admit that I haven't started the "pre-diet" yet. Not completely at least. They want us to wait 1-5 minutes between bites and not drink with meals. I promise I will try harder this week and I will log it all. I'm hoping that if I become more open and sharing my eating habits that it will help. I use to use Sparkpeople.com for tracking and I think I will re-visit that site for that purpose. I will be going to my first support group Monday!! Let's see how it goes.
