Hi all. I just got home from Dr's Baag. BP was 110/40. Cholesterol has dropped, but is still on the high side. He said lab work came back and everything was good except the kidneys were affected from slight dehydration.. But he was not worried about either. Said to diccuss with my Primary on Friday. I told him about the UTI and the EGD stoma stretch last week. He asked about exercise & he sounded okay with it. I did ask for info on the Exercise Evaluation there at PMRI and he told me it does cost $90 and had a sheet ready to give me to get the evaluation. He did say I am slightly above average in the weight loss area. 57.4 lbs. Yippee. Today it has been 8 weeks. Gosh time really flies. My measurements went down, overall he was pleasant, even smiled once or twice. I just kept talking, and talking. Tried to be positive and let him know my health is my #1 prioity right now. Warning: Make your appointments early in the AM. He could be a morning type of guy. He even smiled once or twice. ((HUGS)) Elissa

Elissa you are doing SO great!!! That is fantastic. I have never heard of the exercise evaluation - but for $90 it better be good! BTW I picked up the conditioner this morning. Thanks so much again! Get this - I was supposed to have my appoint there Friday afternoon at 4:30! I had my dates mixed up! Oy... Congratulations again - you are SUCH a loser!! lol! Great Job!
