I meet with the nutritionist and physical therapist tomorrow afternoon and I'm getting a little queasy about it. On top of all this my mom is having surgery to replace a hip.
So many what if's are going through my head. I've done the research and think I know what they'll tell me. Losing weight is scary. One of the program requirements is that I lose 10% of my excess weight and be on their supervised diet for 13 weeks. I'm afraid they'll tell me that I didn't try hard enough to lose weight on my own, that I didn't consult my family dr enough.
I know it won't be that bad when I get there. Its just taking the first step.
