…and many to go.
I’ve seen my PCP and he’s agreed to send in a letter of clearance for bariatric surgery. We also completed the required labs and chest X-ray. I now have an appointment for Friday with a cardiologist to get those tests and clearance out of the way. The next step is the psychological clearance, which I should hopefully be able to knock out this week as well.
Taking charge of my health has been pretty empowering. I like the feeling of knowing what I want and how to go about getting it. Pretty cool.
Good luck! I need to lose weight myself – although not to the point of needing surgery – but I keep putting it off. Hopefully I’ll get motivated someday.
Thanks, Chuck!
