meeting the doctor

[AngiD 95]

I have my first appointment tomorrow, actually it's today in about 8 hrs, but I woke up at 1:00am and have not been able to go back to sleep. I'm excited and nervous.

Good luck!!

Good luck on your appointment. The excitement had me the same way at first.

[AngiD 95]

Had my appointment~ doctor says I have to loss 70 pounds before I can get the surgery.

[mrsreyes 24]

Wow! Good luck on the loss! Is there a particular reason he wants you to lose 70 lbs prior to surgery?

My BMI is higher than recommend and the risks are greater at my weight.

[mrsreyes 24]

Did they at least give you a diet to follow?

No, but I am doing my doctor supervised diet with my doctor. I'm thinking of joining weight watchers.

I have made a choice and I have joined weight watchers and tomorrow is day one.

If you don't mind me being nosey.... How much is your BMI?

[AngiD 95]

90

[Doing It 4 Them 84]

Mine is 62 right now. I meet with the Dr on the 15th and not sure if he will want me to lose more weight before surgery.

Good luck!

[AngiD 95]

Well good luck, I doubt he will, even after I lose 70 pounds my BMI will be higher than that.
