my (late) 6 month check-up is today…
Hey Gang~
My (late) 6 month check-up is today and I am a little nervous — OK
I’m lying I’m scared really. I don’t feel like I’m on track like I
shuld be (and that others are) and I’m afraid I’m going to get
scolded.
Since my period started last monday, I have had to go back up a size
in jeans and now it feels like my weight loss has stopped totally.
I realllyyy don’t want to be “yelled at” - too many doctors have done
this to me about weight issues before.
I know what the errors I’m making are (or I’m pretty sure that I do)-
I know that my excersize is almost non-existant and my sugar intake
is high - I don’t dump on anything - and I still drink Mocha’s in the
morning.
Although on the plus side, I take my vitamins, and am getting ever
increasing amounts of water and am doing protein shakes at least
twice a day.
I also sent a email questioning my doc about what goes on at this
check-up? (do they do blood tests, what exactly was the length of
limb bypassed, etc) I have never gotten an answer so I feel stressed
about not knowing that as well.
I just wanted to touch base with ya’ll and say out loud that I have
these fears.
Scared but trudging along…
