ROLL CALL: December Patients, let's add it up!

We totally rock!!  Keep up the awesome work!

Had Lap. Gastric Bypass on 12/4/08.  As of 1/4, I was down 44 lbs.  Yahoo!

Well I guess I will add my little 11 pound loss to everyones. When I went for my follow up that was the count at weigh in. And yes I was dissappointed. But the Doctor said DO NOT LOOK AT THE MONTH PICTURE..WE WANT THE OVERALL YEAR PICTURE.  SO I HAVE CHOSEN TO STAY AWAY FROM THE SCALES. I am the type of person who is very hard on herself. So I cannot weigh myself everyweek. I get to pissed off at myself.  I had gastric bypass on 12/10/08. I have not weighed myself because the scale and I do not get along at all. I am doing everything the Doctor told me, I exercise on my Treadmill 5 times a week. I know I have lost because I can now wear my size 20 jeans. They are'nt even tight. All of my clothing is starting to get to big. I can wear a size extra large pj's instead of the usual 2x.  So Ho HO Ho Ho it's off to my Journey I go!
