Questions of the day.

I think we need to start being more active here on the NE board.  So I am going to try and start a daily post to hopefully get people to focus and be a passionate part of OH. 1.Are you happy with where you are in your weight loss journey?  Why or why not. 2. Do you keep up with your surgeon as you are suppose to?  Why or why not. 3.What are your plans for Christmas?

1.Are you happy with where you are in your weight loss journey?  Why or why not. yes, because I am down a lot of excess fat and no because I have put on some lbs that I want to take back off. 2. Do you keep up with your surgeon as you are suppose to?  Why or why not.  Yes.  I value my health and the only way to insure that it stays good is to do the labs and visits as required.   3.What are your plans for Christmas? Haven't really made any yet, but it won't be anything big or exciting.  

Hi Hazel,  1. I am happy with my weight loss. My diabetes and high blood pressure are gone and I have lots more energy. 2. I still follow up with my surgeon. I get my band calibrated each year.  3. I plan on staying home for Christmas. I went to Kansas City last year and I want to stay home.  Mona

I am happy with my weight loss. I see t/Dr. like I'm supposed to. I try to keep a daily blog. To answer to myself. No plans for Christmas. Just another day. Except I celebrate the birthday , That it was intended for.

Hi folks.  I never know whether I am supposed to reply to first person or last?  Any help? I am probably not satisfied with my weight loss right now.   I have hit a bump.  While reading on the Obesity Help forum for fibromyalgia I have discovered that weight gain is a side effect of one of my medicines.  However, I don't know if I can give it up.  It is the Lyrica which I swear by.  Do I just need to try harder then to overcome it? 2.  I keep up with my surgeon monthly for now. 3.  Lots of plans for Christmas.  Am driving to Missouri husband's son and family for a couple of days.  Will have supper and special time with my son and brother and their families on the Friday before Christmas.  After Joe's daughter's doctor schedules her surgery we will know when we will get together with her family.  Would be great if they could all get together to celebrate!!!  But I take what I can get.   Thanks for posting regularly.  It does help.  Bless you for getting us off the couch and doing something a little more proactive!!!!
