Psych Appt and More!

Today was a pretty great day! First of all I went to the Psych and talked to her about my issues with my anxiety and my increasing depression and all that. She said that all of her Gastric Bypass patients are on a combo of meds and that they work well. So she added Effexor to my Wellbutrin and gave me Xanax to take as needed for my anxiety. Hopefully this combo of meds will help get me back to life. I just want to enjoy things again. She said we will not know how things are going for three months so we'll see then!

So on to why today was a good day huh?? Well after the Psych appointment, Kaitlyn and I went to McDonalds for lunch before we had to pick up Jon from work. Well I got Kaitlyn a Chicken Nugget Happy Meal with a Milk and decided since I have been craving a salad that I would get myself one. I ordered a side salad and asked for a piece of Grilled Chicken on top. While I sat there peeling the fatty, greasy breading off Kaitlyn's nuggets, I ate my salad. It was wonderful! I got Low Fat Vinagrette and ate about 2/3 of the piece of chicken and a few bites of lettuce. Kaitlyn loves tomatoes so she ate the two tomatoes. Anyway, it went down well and stayed down! I was so excited about eating today, I wish there was someone I could call just to say "Hey, I ATE!" Ah well... at least I got to tell Jon all about it and write it in my blog and I know he and my other supporters will be excited and happy for me as well!
