Well I have not blogged in awhile because I really am doing fine. I went to Pennsylvania over the weekend to visit my brothers and that went well. Everyone has noticed I am losing weight, but to my relief not much fuss was made about it. I did have my first stuck feeling though on Friday. I either ate too fast, or too much. Either way it felt like my chest was going to burst open. I will not make that mistake again. God I hate learning curves. I am still losing weight steadily, but not as fast. I can fit into some of my old clothes already which is my own personal victory. I am do for a visit to my Surgeons for my first fill on 03/13/2009, and I do need it. My only real problem is my PCP is now trying to control the show, and is demanding that I see her before every Surgeons appointment so she can decide if I need a fill or not. Well sucks to be her because with my insurance I can see who I want, where I want and when I want. My PCP wanted nothing to do with me when she kept blaming all of my ailments and injuries on my weight, so she can find another way to collect a $15.00 copay from some other poor schmuck. Can you believe she actually has her Nurse calling me weekly now. Her Nurse said that the Doctor feels that she is the reason I did this. WHAT! No where on my list for getting my band does it mention for my PCP! Talking about ego. I am actually in the process of interviewing new PCP's and I think I may have found one. Well that is were I am now.

I hear you on the PCP, Biker! Amazing how they wanted nothing to do with us and blamed everything on the weight (or also in my case, the smoking. I've since quit.) I so badly want to look at my PCP and say, "Now what will you blame this pain in my foot on? Can I see a podiatrist now?" I have to get her referral for everything.
