I went to my PCP today for a 6 week follow up. He was extremely happy with my progress with weight loss. I'm still losing 7-10 pounds a week. The 24th will be exactly 8 weeks out and I have lost 67 pounds. YAY! But the best news is that he checked my ankles for edema. There wasn't any. He asked me if I knew what that meant and of course I didn't really know. He told me that my right side heart failure is getting better! Wait...its gets better...I have an appointment to see him in January and if by then my blood pressure remains stable he is going to take me off my blood pressure medicine! I am soo happy. This surgery is already saving my life. Definately no regrets!
