Rough Visit

So I had my first appointment with the dietician on Friday. It started out quite rough.

I had my weigh-in and I gained weight since my initial visit with the Bariatrician last month. I was +4 I think. That could be a deal-breaker. I need to be at or below my initial weight for her to pass me through.

She gave some great info, but I'm not sure I like her yet.

She's tiny (which I couldn't care less about but…). And she bragged about how she started eating like we're supposed to and lost 10 lbs and how she didn't ever have a gym membership because she does the "Soup can" exercises--"even though I'm a dietician"

Sorry just felt down and needed to vent.

Hope the psych thing tomorrow goes better

@@2goldengirl he had asked me what my concerns were and that one was a biggie that I had forgotten, that's all. I just hope my other issues don't bounce me out. I'm starting to get into the right mental state and don't want to lose it. I did dig around for that singers thread but couldn't find it. The Bariatrician's response on the singing front was that there had not been a study.

@@DavidOso thanks for mentioning your singing. I'm a baritone myself .
