not such a long wait after all...
Oct 06, 2014
Here I thought I was going to have to wait till January to get re-referred by my fam doc, but then last Monday there was a message from Maria to contact her, after playing phone tag until Thursday, finally was able to find out they were letting me start my WLS journey earlier than anticipated!! I go for orientation in November, of this year!! This excites me, but also makes me nervous, I believe I am ready for this but at the same time, there's still a lot going on in my life that creates a lot of stress (mainly my ex and the looming trial and his lack of empathy to help his kids out) Anyway, I want to keep this blog positive, so, enough of that...I am now down to 1 coffee a day, am working on switching that to green tea again, need to trick my body into believing it doesn't need caffeine. We have stopped eating out/getting take out, more home cooked balanced meals! Am eating breakfast in the mornings, and bringing lunches to work (healthier and cheaper!) Still need to incorporate some type of daily exercise. Bowling once a week on a league doesn't really cut it...I was bidding on this bike on an auction site, it was a three wheeler, adult size, but with funds being limited, I really had to watch the budget on it, so I lost out. :( I wonder if I can find another one for the spring, as now with the weather getting colder, it really wouldn't be easy to go for a ride? I have a colleague who does a zumba class twice a week, need to see if I can squeeze that in somewhere with the kids' schedules...well, enough talking about it, have to DO IT now, right?? :) I'm sure my next blog will be all about my next step (getting in to see the RN, SW, & dietician, right?) Cheers to all who are just starting out, thinking about it, going through it right now, have done it and those that are here for the great support!!
