63 lbs on the losing side!!

I am so sorry I have not posted in a longgggg time but returning to work PLUS trying to keep 'routines' balanced ........ WHEW!!! I returned to Dr. King for my 12 week checkup last week; I have lost a total of 63 lbs and my lab work looked fine!! I have to take an iron supplement plus he added a potassium supplement. I am taking only one blood pressure pill and effexor! Poultry was added to my dietary list... boy was I glad to hear that... !!! I went straight to Burger King and purchased the tender grill chicken sandwich without all the fixings -- I threw away the bread and chomped into that pattie like it was lobster!!! I was wearing size 32/34 prior to surgery but now I am wearing size 26/28!! I really feel so much better! Yesterday my 11 year old insisted I park our car at the very end of the parking lot and walk all the way to the front entrance!! My sons have really been an encouragement for me!!! They actually monitor what I eat ... "Mom... can you eat that?"... "Mom, don't eat too much!!!" I love them for that!!! I pray all is going well for everyone ... I had hoped to attend this month's support group in Hattiesburg but had to attend an organizational meeting for a parent support group of ADHD children. Maybe next month.. I can do a double header!!! My friend (who had surgery in August '06) and I are really interested in becoming involved in a support group!!!! God bless, Wanda Mack

Congratualations! You are doing great. I hope you and your friend will both be able to come to our next support group meeting. The more the merrier. We will love to have you. Melissa

Thanks so much!! The ADHD Support group meet every 3rd Monday at the Hattiesburg YMCA {7:00 pm}. There was a conflict this month as I couldn't get to both meetings....

Congrats WONDA!!! That is GREAT. WOW!!!! You go girl!!! Keep up the fantastic work =) Connie

Wanda, the incredible shrinking woman! WOOHOO girl! It only gets better from here! I know you feel so much better. That first 50 pounds for me made the difference between night and day! I'm SO proud of you! Glad to know you have such a wonderful support group at home! HUGS Kimberly
