I can't believe it's been almost a month since my last post. Time is flying by and I'm so busy but I need to make time to keep these posts updated. Let's see what has happen since April.....I had my eval with the LCSW and it went great. Because I'm a stress eater she requested I attend 4 meetings of a program called Mindful Eating which is taught by a psychologist with a specialty in nutrition.
I also had my first meeting with a nutritionist. Everyone is this program is so nice and helpful that it makes things so much easier. I'm supposed to be keeping a journal of what I eat and scheduling my meals for a week at a time, but I just can't seem to get either done. I have my follow up appointment with the nutritionist tomorrow so I'm sure she won't be pleased.
I also had my 2 nutrition classes which were very helpful. I just need to study all the material so I'll be better prepared for everything I'm going to be dealing with.
After attending the nutrition classes and talking to the nutritionist I'm kinda leaning to the bypass instead of the VGS. The impression I got was that with the VGS it's easier to cheat and you can still have sweets. Does anyone have any thoughts on this? My appointment with the surgeon is next Thursday so I'm sure he will have advice on which surgery is the best fit for me, but you can never have too much information. Right?
