Well its a start

While it is not as great as hearing your alls stories, I have one after getting back from my endocrinologist today. I am down 10 lbs since the last visit. Woohoo that is a start. I had a good sized breakfast this morning and when the nurse checked my blood sugar it was 93 WOOT!!! The doc asked how I was feeling and I told her that I feel great. That I felt that before the new medicines I must have been living in a shell. I feel alive, I don't get tired at work as easily as I used to. She ran some bloodtests to check the testosterone levels to make sure that they are not to high and make sure that it isn't affecting my prostrate. She is just checking to make sure there isn't any problems. I can honestly say that I have not felt this good in years.... maybe ever. I would like to thank those of you here on OH: for talking, for chatting for being like family. It has meant a lot and I appreciate it. Without ya'lls help I would not be doing as well. Oh yeah props to the makers of Lexapro and Androgel. those two medicines rock.

That is good news! 10 lbs is a lot to lose , good job! Delilah

Great Job...Any weight loss is an awesome accomplishment. Just goes to show you have what it takes to be successful!!!!!!!!!!!!! Miranda Austin

Excellent job on the 10 lbs.! Isn't it funny what the smallest change will do to make you feel better? You should be so proud of yourself!

Hey you! Congrats on the loss!! 10lbs is awesome..... 2 bags of sugar, or 2 small dogs.... you know what i mean. You are family silly... my family has known you for a long time and you are one of my best buddies.... I think we will keep ya.... and you look so darn cute dressed as an elf dancing around lol Congrats again! Sarah

Whoo hoo! That is great!

Yea, yea, yea. That is awsome. Everybit counts. And 10lbs is a big diffrence. I am so glad you feel better. I hate to hear when people feel blah. Lexapro can fix just about everything. Its a hard time of year for me, but I am going with the flow. You take care and don't for too hard. Jane

Congrats Ryan!! It only gets better. hehe

thank you ladies! I have lost a fifth of what michelle has lost or a tenth of sarahs total so far. So it has started, with more to come. Yes Jane that Lexapro is some good stuff seems like it fixes most of what ails you. And what it isn't helping the androgel is picking up the slack. Now if one of these two could work on the sniffles. I would be set. Now to get my Blood sugar under better control and my endo will do a cartwheel in the office. she seemed quite happy when speaking with me this morning, after hearing all the stuff going on in my life right now and how I was doing. that and good sleep to make me even better I can't wait!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hmmmm Who was it that said that Lexapro was going to make you feel better? That's right....it was ME!!! It is good stuff....huh? It is my "I don't give a S#@T medicine. If I don't take it for a few days...I know it. Ask my husband. I'm glad that you are feeling good. 10 lbs is AWESOME!!! As far as the sniffles goes...I like Mucinex...that is also some good stuff for the snots.
