Things are moving along....

Just had my fourth diet meeting and two more to go -- have lost 40 pounds so far. Have been walking over a mile on the treadmill each day. Met with the vascular specialist and have a plan all set forth. Met with my surgeon and things are moving along. Found out I will be getting a filter (for possible clots) put in a week before surgery; have to have an upper GI done; and will be on Optifast for the two weeks before surgery. All in all.....things are good....let's just hope that medical mutual feels that I should be approved!

Good luck, You seem to have the dicipline to make this work well for you~ way to go. Peace Pam
