Probably everyone already kjnew this but....
Just switched my HMO from regular Medical Assistance with no HMO to Security Health which covers all the weight loss surgeries. All it took was a phone call. How cool is that? YAY

Smart thinking.  If you have options of different plans it is good to investigate if any have coverage.  Congrats!

I am doing better everyday my energy is getting better. We have been dealing with non-health related issues here lately that have had me stressed but other then that I am doing great.

I am starting to drop the weight pretty quickly now. I now weigh 1lb less then I did when I was a senior in high school (yeah I was a big girl even back then).

I saw Dr. Selwyn last week and he said I am doing great and do not need to see him for another 3 months. So I am taking that as a good sign.

I am still getting iron infusions once a week for 2 more weeks. Hopefully that gets my iron up where it needs to be. Other then that I am working on raising my Vit. A and my Zinc levels as they were the only other two that were low on my labs. But I guess that what happens when you are not able to take your vitamins for nearly 2-2.5 months. So now I will play catch up. But I am following Vitaladies plan so I am sure it will work out.

Oh that's awesome to hear! I am sooooo glad you are doing better physically!! YAY! I'm sure it wont take long to get those vitamin levels back where they need to be too. It must be awesome feeling to see the weight coming off as well. Anyway, I am very very glad to hear that things are going so good for you. Do you think you will be at the support meeting in June?I  would love to meet you in person!
