Went to Doctor today - almost 6 months.
Saw my surgeon today...I'm down 93.5 lbs weight is 212.5. He was so pleased he was checking a checklist:
Diabetes....GONE
High Blood Pressure....GONE
High Cholesterol....GONE
Sleep Apnea....IMPROVED
He was just as excited as me. He said I'm doing great and that he doesn't need to see me for 6 months. I was really excited because I'm officially not a diabetic anymore - YEAH!!! He said the goal was for me to have only 2 doctors; him and my primary care physician. My personal goal is to lose 100 lbs in 6 mo so I will go in next Wed when it is officially 6 months. Who knows, maybe I'll lose another 6.5 lbs in the coming week (wishful thinking...but not counting on it).
I've looked up all sorts of recipes for Thanksgiving and will have to report on them in a couple of days. Happy Thanksgiving everyone.

Excellent, Sue!
Hubby had diabetes, HBP, high cholesterol and sleep apnea - ALL GONE. In fact, he almost died a bunch of years ago from the sleep apnea. He "code blue"d in the ambulance. He was so ill from being sleep deprived that he got double pnemonia.
Me, I had diabetes, HBP and sleep apnea - ALL GONE.
I love the 2 doctor goal! LOL!
You are doing!
Don't be disappointed if the scale goddess doesn't give you your 6.5 lbs this coming week. You have so very much to be proud of without that exactly number on the scale! I'm proud of you! We all are!
