I'm done

So my weight counselor called me a few minutes ago and said that the entire bariatric program has been cancelled. I guess they're assuming we'll all be dead anyway since they won't give ventilators to overweight people.

Yes, cancelled. Will it restart? Probably not for at least a year, probably more if people keep electing these fukups who don't understand anything.

I was going thru the VA, aka mara-lago.

And to think I had such a positive morning.

Fukitall. I'm buying a fukin cheesecake and a box of wine.
 
Aww, I'm so sorry to hear this Badgy. I can't imagine how hard it would be to try to stay positive after hearing this. I have no advice as this is a totally alien predicament. I hope that if you have your wine and cheesecake, you'll have your fill and wake tomorrow with a fresh since of hope. We're here for you and so sorry.

Try not to get discouraged for this. Everything will go back to normal eventually and in the meantime, we can just keep our support options open. Call and ask if they are intending to eventually have online appts (that's now what our clinic has literally just started doing) and if they have any support through your individual clinic in the VA that you work with. I'm in NY right now and even being not part of the city area, we're being hit pretty hard. I've had my moments of really worrying being at high risk but it's not a sentence. Keep practicing safe measures and work toward getting healthy. Your goals haven't changed. It's so hard, I've been derailed in some moments. We've lost family members in Italy as my husband is from there and I've had days thinking how you do. But now I'm not thinking that way and really regretting the momentum I had gained. Don't do that to yourself. We'll get back to normal; it'll happen. For now, you can be pro-active and just work toward your first goal. Hugs to you.
