Progress Report
So it's been a little while since I last updated. 3 weeks from today I meet with my surgeon and get a date. I'm aiming for about the 15th of Dec. I spoke with the individual who takes care of insurance authorizations and I was told that the insurance I have is pretty good about approving and usually with in 48 hours.
I've started having protien shakes throughout the day. I thought it was a good idea to start the protein prior to having surgery. I found that my cravings have gone down considerably. I'm also getting myself out of the mindset that everything I eat is going to be the last time I eat it. I feel at peace with my obsession with food and I have notice a huge change already in how I feel about it. I wanted to make changes prior to surgery because I could do it by choice rather than being force to. I want to be as prepared as I can be.
I've had a few dreams about the surgery. In one dream I had already had the surgery done and I can remember looking down at the little incision. In the other dream I was arriving at the hopital with my bf and my family and making my way to my room. I remembered the room # being 52 and then being inline waiting for my turn with the surgeon. Strange.
I'm very exciting and I know I'm doing the right thing for my mind and body. Now it's just a waiting game, but I keep telling myself that my time will come, and before I know it i'll be heading to hospital and making one of the best decisions I have ever made for myself.
