First Appointment!!

[CephalopodLove 24]

Hit my personal "OMG that scale said WHAT" moment in November.

Did some blood work, some intense research, soul searching, and asked for a referral to the local bariatric surgery clinic in December.

Got the appointment set in January. First meeting with the surgeon on Tuesday (2/11/20). It's with Michelle Toder in Bangor Maine. She seems to have mixed reviews on the internet, but I'm still excited to get this journey going.

I've told a couple people close to me that I'm pursuing this change with mostly positive feedback. But because of where I'm at in my life, this community and the supports from the paid professionals are who I'll have for a while.

Super excited, and just had to say HI!
