8 month check up

Well I has my 8 month check up yesterday. As you may have noticed I have a tendency to think I am doing everything wrong with this. But yesterday made me feel much better. I drove 2 hours to the doctors office, and he was stuck at the hosiptal so could not see me. So I asked to speak to the nurse so I could ask some questions. I think that was even better then seeing the doctor (his bedside manner needs work). She told me my weight loss of 113 pounds is great, that I am eating what I should be, and the best thing, that I can have just cofee and milk for breakfast as long as I get my protien in the day. I felt so much better after I left, it was well worth not seeing the doctor. Hope you all are having a great day Jenn

Good for you!! what was you start weight?

I started at 344 and I am now at 231. Started at size 36 now in a 24. I still have along way to go, but I feel I like I have come very far. Thanks Jenn

Hi Jennifer!!! Congratulations on your weight loss!!! You are doing just awesome!!! Have a wonderful weekend and continued success!!!! Aloha, Pat 261/170/goal 115 (I'm only 5 feet tall) By the way, how tall are you?

Congratulations! your doing great!! I also started about the same as you. I started at 346, have lost 120. I was in a size 34W and now am in a 22W. very similar. stop worrying so much and enjoy the new you! sounds like an overall great apppt. even if you never saw the doc.

Thanks, it is nice to hear from someone who started out at almost the same place as me. I have often thought OH should have a bored for people who have to lose 175 lbs or more, it would be nice to get us all together. Jenn

Way to go... Take care Syndi
