Progress?
It's been a bit since I wrote in here, I've just been so busy lately it seems. My weight loss journey is going pretty well so far. I'm down 11.4 pounds, which is pretty exciting in my opinion! It's hard, and sometimes my body seems to hate me for it, but it's working.
I saw my new doctor last Friday, and let me just say that she is a HUGE improvement from my old doctor. She actually listened to what I had to say, and took my suggestions seriously. We did bloodwork, and she also tested what I asked for. She did all of my referrals that I asked for as well. So I'm back in physical therapy, and also going to see a rheumatologist (sp?), a neurologist, and an osteopathic doctor for chiropractic work and acupuncture. You know what is even better? All of those specialists are going to be through Maine Medical Center, and I have freecare there. So whatever my insurance doesn't cover, the freecare will. So I don't have to pay anything! Woohoo! I still have copays for my physical therapy, psychiatric nurse practioner, and my counselor, but I won't have them for everything. That will help A LOT! I have SO many appointments lined up in the next few weeks, and it's exhausting....but if it helps me, it will be worth it.
Hmmm...what else to update on? Dan and I are going to Long Island in November for his cousin's wedding. It was such a hassle to figure out how we were getting there and such, when he has school and all, but we finally found flights that worked. I'm not overly psyched about spending the weekend with his family though...but I really have no choice. I know it sounds mean of me to say that, but trust me, if you knew more of the situation you'd understand.
I guess that's it for now....hope everyone is doing well! <3
