Just got back from PMRI Check-up
Everything is going really well. My BP was excellent! No more meds for me! I lost 2 cm off my neck and 4" each from my waist & hips! She could use the "normal" bp cuff too! My labs were great except that I need to get more Iron (my iron was on the low side before surgery, always has been). No surprise there. Protein was in the low-normal range, B-12 level was great. My bad cholesteral(sp?) was low, but so was my good cholesteral. He said that should rise with my exercising and weight loss. I'm at a stall with my weight loss right now. I've been at -37 pounds for almost a week now. This happened at 2 weeks out, then all of a sudden I dropped like 3-4 pounds in 3 days so I'm not worried.......... (yet!). Going to Curves tonight and again in the morning, then hopefully down to the Powwow downstate. I've always wanted to go, but up until now Hubby always had to work weekends.
Funny--I was at PMRI today too! What time were you there?
We sound like twins--I lost about the same! 5 inches off my neck, 5 inches off my waist, and 5 off my hips! Yee ha! Weight has been holding at -38 now for several weeks, but the nurse practitioner said not to panic--that since I have been exercising so much, my body is adjusting and that muscle weighs more than fat.
Glad to hear you are doing so well. Have fun at the Pow wow--I have always heard it was fun. I am going to Rehoboth tomorrow to spend the day at the beach--I plan to walk to boards for my exercise in the gorgeous sunshine!
Have a great weekend--
Sue
