Going To See Dr. Baker Today *does happy dance*
I had my 6 month labs drawn Tuesday at my regular Dr. Today I go to Little Rock and see Dr Baker for my 6 month checkup. I can't wait to see what my measurements are!!
Also I am excited to see my lab results. I will update how everything went when I get home!!
I think at my 3 month checkup, they said they would take my pic at my 6 month, so it will be neat to see the comparison between 400 lbs and my current 265 lbs!
Also check out my profile, I made a new blog showing my 2 new babies, with pictures!!!

Everything was okay! Dr. Baker enjoyed my niece being there. He played with her a little! I am sure she enjoyed the attention. All my levels were pretty much okay, except the Creatin, which was a little high and he asked if I was getting enough water, and I said I do. But he wants me to drink more. So I need to do that!
He asked how my eating was, did I ever get sick, am I eating the right things, etc. My sister started getting emotional in there, because he asked her if she has to try to keep up with me now. And she told him that she has never seen me so active ever. So that was nice to hear.
All in all, I would have to say that Dr. Baker was pleased with how I am doing.
I will post my lab results and also my measurements on my profile later today.
