Today is a good day except for my back pain....I went to the doctor the other day and asked for an x-ray...but all they could do was tell me I couldn't get one because of my weight. The x-ray table would only hold 300lbs. You can imagine how embarrassed I was. So they just gave me some flexoreel which doesn't work for me, and some more blood pressure pills.
I hate the doctor anyway, but to make matters worse I got a mean doctor.
She said, " There is no hope for you with a regular diet because of your morbid obesity. You really need a full time job with benefits because you're going to HAVE to get the LapBand or a Gastric Bypass."
Now, those were words of encouragment.
That's what made me realize I'm too good of a person to die from a heart attack because I'm too fat.
All of my friends around me are losing weight, and I just don't understand why I can't, but this time I'm serious. My mother even joined weight watchers, which makes me soooooo happy!!! And now she wants to have a competition....I guess that's motivation. My whole family is overweight, and it hurts me to see us like that. I don't believe in genetics making someone fat. So that is how I am going to live my life....It's only up to me.
So far today I've had a bowl of oatmeal, and for lunch I will have a chicken sandwich with only one piece of bread on it.
That's all I have for now.
Until next time!
much love, mandi
