I went and saw the Nut and Social Worker as required by Kaiser for my next step in their program.  It was a two hour meeting of which I used all two hours of.  They did a type of "personality" test and then a childhood experience test while I was there.  I think it is used mostly for their ongoing research for the reasons why people become obese.  I was happy to participate, although the childhood test was a hard one for me as my childhood experience holds much pain and is a main source of why I have had weight problems.

I will post after this one some of my Epiphanies I had while answering some of the questions they asked me to answer before going to this meeting.

I brought with me my food diary and the Nut told me that I needed more variety in my meals.  Although this may be true, I tend to find things that I enjoy and stick to it.  I don't like to deviate much because that can lead to eating things that put me back into bad habits.  I told her that but she insisted that I try and eat a variety of things.  The truth is I will be fabricating some of my food diary because I happen to know my body and what works for me.  I found her very nice and knowledgeable but I am losing wt and don't feel like I am missing any important foods.  What can I say I am a rebel lol.  Bedside from all that I have read my taste preferences will most likely change after the surgery anyways and I will be looking for different types of food then and that is what I have y'all for ;p

So in one months time I will go back to see the Nut and Social Worker to make sure that I am doing what is expected and my wt is continuing to go down and then I will have the meeting with my SURGEON!!!!  I cant believe it!  From the time I got accepted into the Kaiser program to now it has been only 5 months and it is going so fast!  I should be having surgery with in the next few months and I am VERY ready and EXCITED!!!  It seems everything has just fallen into place for me.  I have not missed any appointments and have been very dedicated to this change. 

So that is where I am at so far.....looking forward to seeing the scale continue to move down.  I can't wait for my "fat" pants to be fat pants again!!!!
