Anxious and Frustrated

Okay so this is my blog right? So I can complain if I want to?? I am usually of the mindset that complaining gets you no where and what's the point anyway but I feel like having a small pity party. I will be done with all my pre consult appointments next Friday...I cannot even see the surgeon until Dec. 22nd...he requires a 2 week all protein shake diet prior to surgery and I have three weeks off at Christmas. I was REALLY hoping to have surgery during that time. My next time off is in April! It wouldn't be so bad but I am on the borderline with my bmi. I am at 40.7. I have borderline high bloodpressure but that would not count as a comorbidity. If I lose any weight it will ruin my chances of insurance paying for it. If my surgery can't be until April will I have to do the psych and nutrition consult again??? I'm frustrated because as soon as I went to the seminar I hit the ground running with all my appointments and now it is like I hurried up only to wait! Grrr...

Okay no more complaining I know there are a lot of people on here who have worse things to worry about and it is not the end of the world...just wanted to vent!:cursing:

I ended up going four weeks early so anything can happen! Get everything done and be ready. I am sure glad I was when I got the call. We have a cancelation would you like the spot? Heck YES and I was called on a Friday and was banded on Monday. Yippeee for me. I am now down 110 pounds and have never been happier. Keep positive and get everything done that needs to be done. Best wishes imaluckydog
