6 week and Daisy Updates!
Today was my 6 week appointment!
I saw Terry her appointment was before mine, she has definately lost some weight!!
I was a little nervous because the scale at the clinic always weighs me in at a few extra pounds. As I got on the scale I was saying "248, 248" and sure enough it was 248 (245 on my home scale).
So I went into the little room and the girl who escorted me in there was like what's that in your water bottle hehe I had cut up half a lemon and stuck it in there.. some sugar free lemonade.
Then I waited a bit for the doctor, but in came the nutritionist instead. She gave me some handouts and said I'm doing great. She said 500-600 calories a day is just fine as long as I'm getting my protein in. She said I can switch to swallowable vitamins and told me to start taking a calcium suppliment. I also can stop taking my stomach acid reducer! Woo hoo.
Then came the doctor. He said I'm way ahead of schedule! He said if I keep losing at this rate I could lose all my weight in 6 months... of course it's going to slow down, but what a nice thought. He told me my goal is between 140-150 but I'm thinking more 120-130... we'll see when it gets closer.
After my appointment I went to visit Daisy.. she is so nice! Her husband is very nice as well! She is doing good, she got to eat her first popsicle and passed her leak test! She's a very nice person, I'm glad I got to meet with her!
