Doctor Update For Me!

Went to see the doctor today. Says I'm doing great. He said he wants patients to lose at least five percent of their body fat a month but no more than 15 percent and I have lost 12 percent so that is good. He drew some blood to run test and will call me with those results. He also put me on a drug to help keep my gallbladder healthy while I'm losing weight. I have to take it four times a day like I will remember that. He also said I have to wait another month before I can go on my birth control pills, that really sucks. Can't chance a pregnancy right now though, it would be dangerous for me and the baby have to wait at least a year. So far I've lost 29lbs since surgery and 60 all together. I've lost five inches on my waist, one and a half on my neck and 9 on my hips, not to bad uh. He estimated by the end of the month I would lose 34lbs. If I lost that much that fast I would be at goal in four months. He said I should be there in six months so that is great. It will be right at the time of our cruise to Cozumel. I can't wait.
