The most glaring problem is my lack of exercise for last week. I just couldn't motivate myself to do it. First I blamed the depression prior to having my two ( perfectly healthy before the bad dentist drilled them away to nothing for a bridge) teeth pulled, then I blamed the pain and medications after having them pulled, and finally I blamed the need to work overtime to recoup some of our financial losses from the bad dentist. ( all of the missed work and extra daycare resulting from the extra appointments to normal dentist trying to correct the bad dentist work. You can guess how well that went) I have allot of excuses for not exercising and not eating better but now I need to clean up and put away the cake from my pity party (there wasn't really any cake as I couldn't have eaten it anyway due to my teeth or lack there of) and get back on track. It is like my mother always said, "Yes, something bad happened to you. Now you have a choice, can sit around and let this person keep hurting you by continuing to feel sorry for yourself (and pretending to eat imaginary cake) or you can get up, dust yourself off and continue living your life the best you can thereby showing this person that you are stronger than anything they can do to you." Sounds nice and it makes sense,

Hey Megan...
My appt went real good... Dr. Snyder said I should teach a class on how t prepare for his consult. I had everything he needed. The only thing I was missing was a visit to the nutritionist which I did not now I needed to have or i would have done that prior to meeting. Dolly worked it out for me to get into to see the inhouse nutritionist tomorrow at 8:00. The only one other thing that I worry about is the 5 year history. I do not have it... I think I went back as far as 2007 but I didn't have 05 and 06 I didnt have insurance in 2005 and pretty much all of 2006... I was in school. I guess Cigna wants documentation of 5 years... So we'll see. I am going to be so upset if I get denied because of that. I am however going to think positive. Fingers crossed...
So on top of all the consults make sure to add the nutritionist in there if you have not already... My hope is that we get everything submitted within the week.
I just want this step to be over.. I really do...
Hope that you have a great week and I will keep you posted on everything.
