Weight Update

I spoke about options last time (and yes, I realize it has been a while). I found out, short of a huge cash windfall from no where, surgery is not an option as my insurance does not cover any part of it. Before I get on to the next option, I would like to address that. I really do not understand why insurance covers no part of it, not even the 80-20 coverage. I hear constantly on the news about the millions of dollars that obese people cost from a medical standpoint. Yet, they could spend 8000-10000 dollars once and wouldn't that be cheaper? I really do not get it.

I am pretty sure I am going to check out the Houston Weight Loss center. My daughter's friend went and had success and all of the reviews online that I have read are positive. I am just so tired of the struggle. Of course my cousin tells me the root of my weight issues is anchored in other things. I know she is right but I am not yet ready to deal with that. I just want the weight to be gone.

I am also thinking I will check out the Dukan Diet 2 book. I figure it is at least worth a read until I am able to get a consultation at the center.

If you have never been the fat girl, count your blessings. Being the fat girl is simply not fun. I was never the fat girl growing up so I know what that feels like. I know what it feels like to be slender, attractive, and feel good physically. I miss that. I miss all of that.

 I really want that again.
