Progess Report

I wanted to wait until I went to the doctor today before I reported in. My surgery was Dec 12. Today I don't need my blood pressure pills any more. I hope I won't need my allergy pills when the tree pollens comes in March but thats just wishing. BP was 122/86 Weight was 247.7 Total weight lost since surgery 30.3lbs. Oh I was so happy with that. I went in to see my Nut. She asked do you know how much you have lost? I said yes the nurse told me 30lbs. She said that was since your surgery but have you forgot that you lost 10lbs before you had surgery? I had!!!! How could I have forgot about 10lbs. Thats a sack of potatoes. She said you have lost a total of 40lbs from the day you first step into our clinic. I let out a scream and we started laughing. I know every one is different and the lost are different. I was so happy with my 30 but now I am dancing knowing I lost 40!!!!!! I was praying for an 80lb lost and would try for 100. Now I feel like I am half way home and yesterday I felt well ok for 30. 10lbs makes a big deal and now I am really so happy. I am so glad I didn't buy all that chocolate out of the Dollar Tree yesterday...... YEAH ME!!!! Oh and I guess you can tell I feel good.

You are doing great. And your profile is really neat. I love the big cat. anyway congratulations on the loss. Isn't it great to be on the losing side. Corrine

Thanks one of the weight lost helpers did it for me. Ask me what did I like and theywent from there. I just wish I could learn how to put the date on a separate line and it stay that way. I gave them pictures before Christmas but never heard any thing else.

WOO WOO!!!!! You go girl!

Wondering.....you mentioned you were taken off BP pills with a l20/86 reading. Was that reading taken while you were taking BP pills, or after you had been off of them for a few days. Thanks.

The last BP pill I had was the morning of my surgery. There were a couple of times I felt my mother and sister were sending me through the roof. Put both of them on the back burner. BP has been fine since. Thank God for CALLER ID
