Stay Wild Moon Child

Ok I know it's been a while but there were some bumps in the road but I have been approved to stage 2 for weight loss surgery. So now for the next 6 months I need to do 12 PT Visits, 12 visits to counselor, 12 visits with a dietitian, and 6 weigh ins at the doc office. And plus what ever else the weight loss surgery place needs me to do before I can get approved for the actual surgery I have until May 14 to lose 5% of my weight too.

Ok so today doctors office sent Molina some paper work and I really hope they approve me for stage one which is to see the surgeon and start all the tests and 6month supervised diet. Tomorrow I have the surgery meeting that will last 4 hours a very long meeting. So much is up in the air and I really need some good new and good luck.

Yesterday I did a lot of thinking about if I had this surgery done how life would be after. How hard it will be the first couple of months adjusting to eating smaller and how much stuff you need to get to keep you healthy.

I am getting a new PCP and hope that all goes well and hope my old doc office will send my records over fast. I have been doing a lot of research and watching videos again, I just don't know if my insurance will pay for it or I will have to do a 6 month supervised diet.

For right now my brother and husband is my only support system right now who believes that I do need this and this thing I am talking about is weight loss surgery. My family and probably don't believe I need it and it's going to be a waste of time. To start with I am 5'3 225/230lbs which puts my BMI at 39.9/40 and I can say I have been over weight for about 12 or so years. I have always been bigger then my parents and sister and brother but not where I was needing to loss a ton weight at that time the weight didn't hit me until I go pregnant with my first child at 17 and then I lossed some after she was born not a lot. Then once I moved out and graduated from high school is when my weight went out of control. I ate what ever I wanted with out thinking about what it would do to my body I was almost blind to the fact that I gained so much wieght until we got fam...
