Went to my first appt today! Talked with the NUT and I LOVE her! She isn't covered under my insurance, but her fees are reasonable so I'm paying to see her for sure instead of using my PCP. The shocker for me was that I AM on the 90 day fast track *gulp* so now I'm all jittery excited. I was expecting 6 months, but this will actually work great because I can drag this out til Dec when my hubby is off work and not have to take any of his vacation days for my recover so that's a bonus! I have to meet with the psych for an evaluation, but other than that, and blood tests and maybe a sleep study it should be very straight forward! I'm so happy to get this started and less afraid of being away from my kiddos after he said he'll let me go as soon as I meet the criteria and that it should be similar in recovery time compared to my gallbladder surgery!

Congrats! It's always a plus when things start going your way throughout the process. Your healthier life is looming right around the corner!

That sounds great.

Good deal on finding a nutritionist that you like. I was lucky that way, too.

The schedule ahead really sounds like it's going to line up perfectly for you as well. More good news.

You are on a roll. Enjoy the smooth sailing.

Sure is going to feel good being a few months past the surgery and having trouble finding clothes in the closet that, while baggy, will still work. Gonna be fun.

@@Dub yeah I'm really excited at the smoothness so far. Generally when I'm involved it usually hits anywhere from 10 to 20 snags along the way! Haha I can't wait to be able to steals daughter's clothes. For years I've been buying her the stuff I really want to be wearing but doesn't come in plus size, so maybe when I hit that goal I'll just go shopping in her closet! ????

@@The Candidate I'm so looking forward to this. I'm afraid to get too used to this "ease" of getting through stuff though because it feels like I have hope right now of being "normal" and usually whenever I have hope, someone comes and busts my bubble. Could be the psych eval. I'm a total lunatic! ????
