I joined Spark People again yesterday and posted a weigh in of “0 pounds lost”.  I’m not going to let silly panics about privacy keep me from the group that’s likely to motivate me.  Yes, it’s a big group.  Get over it already.  And while J was a reason for my initial hesitation, I’ve decided that I can’t let her presence intimidate me.  I’ll be okay.  She’s not really that scary.  And really, while the main motivation behind the weight loss is me (so I feel good) it will benefit her too if the cycle is better.  How can she possibly disapprove of it?

 

So it’s the waiting time.  Things I know need done:

---Weight loss

---My annual exam

---Find a clinic

            …local to one of us or at least convenient for both of us

            …willing to work with TS via IVF

            …reasonable BMI requirements for an ED (me)

            …willing to do single embryo transfer

            …do we need to re-do psych eval?

---Legal Logistics Questions

            …is there a way to make the PBO possible?

            …does the previous adoption make things more complicated?

            …will they need a home study for a step-parent adoption?

            …How does a contract work for “expenses only”?

---Contracts

 

The first two are my problem.  The second two are things I have to trust that J can handle.  And the last one is a mutual thing.  I’m practicing my patience because we’re in no hurry.
