Of course that means that I need to put forth some effort :-/
I debated about blogging about this yet, but I'm really excited for it, so I'm going to...
I've got an appointment/orientation scheduled for Thursday of next week with Henry Ford hospital. They have a weight management program which I plan on participating in. I've sent the referral form for my doctor to sign off on, and am (im)patiently waiting for my info to come in the mail. It sounds like it will be a VLCD (very low cal diet) utilizing shakes/meal replacement bars/supplements but under the care of doctors, dieticians and professional fitness people. I think that having the accountability to others - professionals - will be the saving grace for me. I need to do this. I know I do and I'm excited to see the results. I'm hoping that my dr doesn't have any problem with me participating - and talking to a trainer and dietician will be great and I'll have guidance on what I need to do.
I've done shakes and stuff before so I'm not worried about that. I'm sure the first week on vlcd will be hell just because I've not been doing great on my own lately but I'm sure I'll start feeling better fast! I think next week I might do strict HL just to get me ready. I'm hoping it moves quickly after orientation. PS I really hoping some reading materials show up in the mail today.
PPS - missing my WL buddy Kelly <3
