Update on Bear

I went to see Dr. Cleveland yesterday,(31st), He said he was very proud of me. I am officiallly -41lbs in 17 days.. Which of course made my day. He gave me permission to start back driving and my water arobics so I am off to the pool come monday morning. For those who asked I have meant to tell you all that he was able to do my surgery lap. I was greatly suprised. He said I was the second biggest man he had ever done lap. I feel he is one of the best surgeons out there and am so happy I chose him to do mine. I am not sure of any other that would have tryed to do it lap on someone my size. On a side note. Can anyone tell me when the meeting in Jackson for cmmc is I know I need to go but am not sure when it is. Thanks again for all the prayers and support they have meant the world to me.
