I've Done IT!!!!

Hi everyone, I went back to the dietitian yesterday. I was surprised that I lost another 11 pounds. That is a total of 35 pounds so far. I went to visit my friend Laynie last weekend and was afraid that maybe I might have done something wrong. I didn't really eat off the diet, I just didn't get everything in and didn't know if that would show up when I weighed. The dietitian gave me the after surgery diet so I have a month to go over it, I will see her again on the 10th of January. The big surprise was that she told me to go over and talk with Linda at the Doctors office to see if they could start scheduling me to see all the other doctors that I have to get clearance with before the surgery. Linda was able to schedule me with three doctors on Dec. 13th. I will see the cardiologist, pulmonologist and the psycologist. I start at 10 am and see the last one at 2:30pm. Linda said to come back to the office after the last doctor and she would see about scheduling for the next round. I will post again after seeing the doctors on Thursday. I need to go over all the papers that Claudia(dietitian) gave me. I know that I have to learn to eat some foods that I don't like, cream of wheat, cream of rice or malt o meal. I think that was the only thing that really caught my eye right away. If I don't want to get sick I will following everything and I don't want to get sick, so I will learn to eat what I don't like. The portions will be much smaller than I'm used too, even smaller than what I am allowed now. Wish me luck. As I've said before I have a fantastic support group behind me cheering me on.
