I've been stressing

OK..so I've been stressing alot now that my surgery is less than a month away and my surgeon's office isn't giving me what I need to wrap my head around the idea that everything will be ok to go. They submit to insurance at a certain time and only deal with the immediate surgeries. One of my co-workers put my mind at ease (we are the same Type A personalities). She said, I have control over what's on my desk and I can have all my ducks in a row. I have to believe that my (lawyer, surgical coordinator, financial advisor, etc.) is an expert at what they do and I have to trust that they will do the best they can for me. It hit me...she is absolutely right. I'm stressing because I have no control over the order in which things are to be done...and it is driving me crazy. I do not like not being in control. There, now I feel better. Rachelle

Showin my face around these parts again.... and wouldn't you know - that's exactly one of the things I'm TRYING to deal with. This whole thing isn't all going my way and I don't like that - I was supposed to lose more weight, it was supposed to have all happened by now, my body was supposed to adjust without any problems with excess flab/skin, I want to wear size 34 pants, blah, blah, blah.... I hate not being in control... (get your mail Rachelle - will respond). Relax girlfriend... you've had mountains of patience getting to this point - it will all happen as it's meant to happen. Steve

I know it will happen, I'm just feel like I'm runnig out of patience sometimes. You know me. I just don't like when I can't control a situation more. Rachelle

I hate not being in control too. It will work out just fine and soon you will be on your way to looking and feeling even better. Now go drink a crappy tasting proten drink, you'll feel better lol
