Unfortunately my therapist told me that she doesn't think I'm ready due to me having one emotional eating day. She recommended I return for two visits in July and two in August. I'm so upset that I cried in my car for over an hour also I'm totally depressed after seeing her. I have waited for six months with one visit per month at the weight loss clinic. I Had all my testing done,quit smoking,quit drinking alcohol totally,gave up soda. Everything I was told to do and now I feel like giving up . The six visits over six months and 2 therapy visits is part of insurance requirements before approval. I planned everything for a reason because I'm almost finished with my internship and I'm about to start a new job so if I wait two additional months it will totally screw up my schedule. I don't want to start a new job and have to take time off for surgery before my 90 days is up.I wish I wouldn't have shared anything with the therapist because she has no clue on how much I changed my eating habits from a year ago and I don't overeat to the point of stomach pain any more. I know that surgery is one of the tools that I need to continue my journey. Right now I'm just miserable in my body ,depressed and I feel like giving up on this whole thing because next it will be another excuse why I can't get surgery?☹️ Signed , Over it

Ydiva1, I am so devastated for you! I know making the major changes is difficult and you're doing your best. Can you request a second opinion? I think scheduling is pretty important to success too. You have a pace set. I'm sorry to hear about your tears and I would do the same.

Be well!

Hey Kaycee7, Thank you for the words of encouragement .If you only new how much I needed that. Also I'm getting a second opinion Wednesday and a 3rd Thursday just in case . Cross your fingers and say a prayer for me!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'll be thinking about you and praying for a positive outcome!!

All the best!!! And fast recovery!
