Docs appointment..

Wow.. i had a great visit with my doc.. she gave me a clean bill of health.. on top of that.. she marked off 3 more problem areas I have on my chart.. i no longer have asthma... or pcos.. heres the big one.. ready... I am no longer.. OBSESE.... yes.. she put it as resolved.. the only open area's i have now are my arthritsis, psoriasis and depression.. yes i take prozac but with my history you can probably figure that one out... grrr...how is that for a good day at the doc. She put in for me to meet with the nut.. says I dont need to loose more weight... she also put in for me to see a counselor just to touch base with eating disorders and to discuss some strategies to keep my skinny... I asked.. and she put in for my TUMMY TUCK.. yes.. the paper work is in.. I gave her a week of my meal plans, a week of my exercises I have been doing.. a journal of all my skin problems and 6 pics of my psoriasis... she says it shouldnt be a problem getting it approved.. now I have to wait and see..she said probably 10 days to hear back. One last thing.. i made the nurse re-measure me.. remember she said I was 5'4.... Well it's been driving me nuts to be an inch shorter.. so she re-did it and i stood really tall.. I am 5' 4' and 3/4... that is 5'5 where i come from.. I am tall again..yeah... I am so excited to have so a good result from my doc this year.. past years have never been great..

good job at the docs office....don't mind me if i sniffle and sob at your quarter inch to 5'5 ok? For those of us sucking wind at making it to 5' tall it's hard to hear you tall folk ***** and moan over an inch! Hugs, ANDI ps. if you email me through my profile your email addy i'll get you a picture!

Please can I have a pic too? Thanks PS. how did your children's stalls go? A while back you posted for ideas

Hi Honey! Do you mean the carnival stuff? The date for that is 4/21? We haven't gone to the doctor with them yet for the stuff you and I discussed we've got an appointment in May i think. Can you email me your home email addy i have the work one which is fine for Monday through friday chat but bites bullets on teh weekend. Hugs, ANDI

That is GREAT NEWS Carla I'm really pleased for you even though I'm a bit (well a lot if I'm honest hee hee) jealous that you are there and I'm still on the journey. But I know I'm not far behind and with all the encouragement you give I'll be there soon. What a feeling it must be - I bet you are jumping for joy aren't you? Sounds like you'll have a new body (with the TT etc., ) before you know it

Ruthy you and I will make it to the finish line hand in hand and foot to foot! We are soldiers in this war on weight and united we can do anything. I am going back to the "olden days' when i ate protein first then veggies. It seems to be working (with the dancing!) because slowly the scale is moving in a downward slope! I've got 6-7 pounds till i'm just overweight and I'll take that, how much longer do you have? I've got 22 pounds until i reach the surgeons goal and 35 until i reach my own goal. If i land somewhere in between i'll be thrilled. Hugs, ANDI
