6 Month Checkup - how did you do?

I have my 6 month checkup coming up on the 13 of this month and I am so excited! I had my blood drawn last Tuesday. What tests did your doctor run and was all okay? What sould I MAKE SURE that my doctor does? How much weight have you lost at 6 months?!?!?

Hi Monika!! I had my labs drawn a week or so ago. My 6 month f/u is on Tuesday. I'm really looking forward to it. Can't wait to see what HIS scale says. Mine tells me I'm down 89 pounds from surgery!! Wooo hoooo!!! Take care and let us know how you are doing!!! Susan

My surgeon doesn't want to see me until I am a year out. So my next visit with him is not until October. I am watching the blood work with the PCP who has not seen me since before surgery so I guess he will get a little shock when he sees me. hehehe Tara

My appointment is Monday. I don't have to get any blood work before the appointment. I had enough drawn for the Endocrinologist a week or so ago anyway. I did request the results be sent to my surgeon. A

I had my blood drawn about 2 weeks ago at my regular doctor in town. They faxed the results to my WLS doctor. The nurse that took my blood said it came back low in Vit-D so I have started taking extra. I have not heard it from my other doctor office. My appt. was on 4/2 but I had to work that day so now I am not schedules to go bac****il 4/19. As of the other day my scales say I have lost a total of 77 lbs. I feel soooo much better than I did 6 months ago. The scales are at a slow crawl now but it is ok....as long as I feel this good I do not care how much the scales move Lisa S

I had my check up March 30th..was actually a 5 month check up. They had did my blood work a week prior, and said everything was great. On that day I had lost 96 pounds! So my dr was really impressed. I go back in 3 months for a SMA..a shared medical appointment..which will have others there for their appointment also and we share how things have been..Sounds interesting!
