Starting the Journey...

Well I finally got around to setting up my appointment for a physical with my doctor. I know it's the first step to getting the weight loss surgery I need. What I don't know is why I was so hesitant to set up the appointment. At first I waited 'til I had insurance, but it was another month past that when I set up the visit.

The appointment was fine. My EKG was normal, and everything else looks good except the number on the scale. I know I am truly lucky, as I am the first in my family to have a normal EKG, normal blood pressure, no diabetes, and overall appear healthy. Blood tests were taken on Friday, so we'll see what other results we have then.

I was given the referral I needed to one of the finest weight loss surgery centers in town. I go July 10 for a weight loss seminar, which is required for all people considering weight loss surgery through their program.

I am officially on the road now...
