My 1 Year Check up
I know its actually after my anniversary but for some reason my doc scheduled my appt in June. He saw my hernia (which was there in Feb) and said I need to lose a little bit more weight then call him and he'll do the repair on it. I told him I kind of wanted to do the plastics along with the repair and he said he didn't recommend it becuase that's two big surgeries at once. He explained what he would do for the repair told me I was doing good...listened to me rant for a minute then calmly explained that I couldn't expect the weight to come off in one year. I had almost 300 to lose. I told him that I weigh now what I weighed in Feb when I was there to see him but he said your hips are smaller so that's something to be proud of. Then he whipped out the pic he took of me right before my surgery and said look at that then look at you now..are you still complaining? I laughed said no that I was just concerned and he said he wasn't so I shouldn't be. I'm glad that I have such a good surgeon. We then went to go see some friends that had moved to Little Rock and had lunch with them and then came home. The only bad part of the trip was on the way down we stopped at McDonalds for breakfast and I was craving big time craving biscuits and gravy and the small portion is just my size so I ordered it. Well my Grandma who was with us said how can you lose weight and eat that. Meanwhile she's packing away 2 sausage biscuits, hashbrowns and coffee. I hate it when people comment on what I'm eating....I'm a big girl I know what I'm supposed to eat and what I'm not. Sure it may not have been the best choice but I made it so I have to deal with it...GET OFF MY BACK ALREADY!
Ok I'm done gripping. : - (
