STILL waiting and lap band thoughts

I’ve yet to hear from either nurse at the cardiologist office. Obviously I’m not getting the == look for blockages == procedure done THIS Thursday, since it’s over.

I also haven’t heard from the Nurse Practioner. I haven’t said this in the message but I want to talk to her about lap band too — she DID bring it up.

Speaking of lap band, Maggie’s other mother had it done a few months ago and she is lost something like 50 pounds. Magggie is my bad beagle, yes, I introduce her as the bad beagle, and her other mother is the lady who rescued her “free to a good home”. Mom (short for Maggie’s other mother), is at 361 pounds which is almost 100 pounds more than I am. I don’t want to think about what she used to weigh, and is very happy with the procedure.

I still think I can lose weight the old fashioned way, especially if I can get the new principal to help — and all I want him to do is to make sure that the Dean doesn’t mess with me for awhile. I’ve gained back 10 pounds and I figure 5 is from the schedule change and 5 is from freaking out over finals.

I might have time for lap band after summer school and before regular school, but it is pushing it, because I have some workshops and a trip scheduled for then.

I might even make time for it during the school year, though Joyce thinks I will have to spend time in ICU after because of the diabetes thing and the possible blockage thing.

I could use the surgeon I met with last fall, I think he does it, though he might want me to do the full thing — I’m not sure about that.

Anyway, I just want to finish the discussion she and I started and got interrupted on.
