I kept my appointment for my three year check up and saw my surgeon today. Yes, it is two months past my three year date. I was afraid to go because I have gained some weight.

Dr. G was very happy with me. All my numbers were exactly where they should be. He said he can tell I am taking my vitamins, calcium and eating my protein like I should be.

As for the 20 pounds....for some reason I was thinking it was more...but I saw his numbers and he is right. He said he would like me to lose it if I can. Overall he feels I am maintaining well. He didn't lose his temper or speak down to me and he was not angry at all. He had a lot of suggests for me and was so helpful. Yup....he is still my hero!!!

I was so not going to go....I got to the elevator and started turning around to go home...then I remembered what some of you have said to me (especially Kelly D) and I went right in to the office anyway. I am so glad I did. I am not feeling so bad about myself and the guilt has been taken off my shoulders. What a relief!

Thank you all for your continued support!!!

HUGS.....connie d

Yay you!  I am so glad you did go in and now feel better about yourself as a result.  You are a huge inspiration for me and now I am going to go make an appointment as I missed my 12 and 18 month appts.

Connie,

You could never disappoint me.....This is a journey, and were all here for one another....As I put on FB, each year I peel back another layer......We can do this, and it's one of the hardest things I've ever done, but so worth it......

I can't do a cartwheel either, LOL.....We must get together soon.....I think were all due for a St. Cloud coffee.....Miss you and love you....Kel

I might go ahead and make that appointment, I need more abuse in my life right now!! Have not had enough this week!! Just kidding, I am sure he would not 'YELL' at me, I am just not one of his 'Super-Stars.....


Love ya girl, and am so proud of you!!

Carol...don't say you aren't a Super Star...YES you are!!

You may have not made it to the goal you wanted but you haven't put on the pounds like I have. You have managed to maintain and after all isn't that what this is all about.

YOU are a success!!!!!!!

Now get on the phone and make that appointment. Dr G just really cares about us. We are all different. He understands and he does care!!

Love you sweetie....hugs....connie d
