Default 6 Week Appoitment

I went back to the surgeon yet again yesterday for my 6 week appoitment. I told the girls there to just put me on the payroll. LOL. Anyways. I lost 1 more pound. LOL. He checked me out talked to me about a few things and then asked If I had questions. I asked him about the 1 pound in a weeks time to reassure myself. He laughed. He said your body finally caught up and is now healing itself and this was NORMAL. He said I should lose for up to 2 years time. He couldnt tell me how fast or slow I would do it but it would happen. He then told me I still wasnt ready to return to work even part time. He didnt want to see for for another 6 weeks but if I wanted to return to work sooner to let him know and he would then release me.

I was paid a couple compliments buy my son yesterday. He said MOM your legs and face and arms and stomach and feet and......etc..... are getting smaller !!! I laughed and said thanks. I had on clothes that were tight on me before this surgery so you could tell the difference yesterday for sure. So anyways that is my update.

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

LOL ladies. I will get them up as soon as I feel like making my self presentiable for yall to see me. The complications I had from this really did kick me hard. Im starting to feel better because i actually said a swear word yesterday! LOL hubby said it was music to his ears. Do any of yall shake alot still? I thought it was medication at first that would make me shake all over but now im not sure. I dont do it all the time but I have noticed when I have to deal with somthing like going to the Drs or like going into Walmart the other day and really not wanting to I start to shake all over and just cant stop. The surgeon asked me if I was taking my Lexapro yesterday like I should. I said yes. Im starting to wonder if its the situation that is in frount of me that makes me do this. But then..... I can be up doing somthing such as fixing me a bit to eat and start shaking the same as going to take a shower. I have decided to give this a week and see what sparks these spells. If I dont see improvment I will go to my PCP and discuss this with them.

I have never been scared of seeing a physican or having labs done but I know each day I was in the hosptial I hated it. I hated to see a nurse come in even if it was to give me pain meds that I needed. They put them in my central line which does not hurt. I wonder if it is a trauma I expericened while in there that is making me this way.
