Day 40. What the Doc had to Say.

Well I've been going to the doctor since July.

Maybe about 20 tests have been done to figure out whats going on with my body. Nothing has shown up yet. Doctor says on paper I look great all of my levels are perfect.

1) It's amazing that I'm almost 100 lbs over weight and still so healthy.
2) It's annoying as fuck to have a lot of symptoms and no answers.

I don't know why it's so important to me to have an answer. It is.

Its been a while ( Feb 4th ) since I found out the news and  I'm still trying to move on and be ok. I have more doctors appointments coming up and specialist and such I just think the bottom line is I have a turtle metabolism and  I eat my feelings sometimes. If that is all thats going on I can work with it. It'll be slow as hell but I'm working on it now right?

The doctor offered me a couple of choices one was weight watchers ( if she wasn't so amazing I would have punched her in the throat) I've tried weight watchers 4 times. I eat my points in cake then wonder why I'm hungry and have no energy and only lose about .5 lbs a week.  BUT I stayed Within my POINTS??

The other was shocking... Gastric Bi-pass. Where they make your stomach the size of a grape. Well let me tell you . I almost fainted. I'm not THAT FAT!!!! AM I?  Since when do we do major surgery to healthy girls who are a size 14 ( dropped from a 16 bitches )

Apparently you just need a high BMI which I have. My doctor also says its becoming more and more popular and suggested more often.

Lastly I was offered a diet pill that takes some of the fat in your diet away. It isn't major. If you do nothing and just take this pill you could lose about 3 lbs a month. Not crazy. But something.

I went with the pill. I was offered it in July and didn't take it.

I'm 40 days into this new life and I'm 11 lbs down. Not amazing. Not life changing. It is something and I'm ready for another push.

I'll let you know how it goes.
