my dr. visit today

I'm gonna make this short because it is late and I am tired... I had my weight check today with Dr. K's nurse.  I was DOWN 9.5 lbs!!  Yippee me!!!  I had my blood work done (thyroid, liver panel, and h. pylori)  Results will be in 1 week. I asked about the status of my case being sent to insurance...  They said they were working on it TODAY and that Amanda was on the phone with the insurance co. at that moment. I plan to call the insurance co. tomorrow to see if they have received everything.  I sure hope so! My goal now is to have a surgery date the first week of April so I'm 4 months out when we go to San Diego this summer (1st week of August) so I can eat somewhat normally! I'll keep ya all posted! Dot

I am so happy for ya Dot.  I promise I wont tell ANYONE what you had for dessert tonight.  Oops I done said too much.  hehehe

That is great news, Dot.  You will be there before you know it.  Losing 9.5 pounds is great!  Keep up the great work.  I will save you a spot next to me on the loser's bench.

Okie!!!  I can't believe you let THAT slip!!!!! Everyone, I want you to know (since Okie let it out of the bag) I had dessert last night!  It was good, rich, fattening, all the good stuff.  But, I felt so guilty on my drive home last night! Amybeth, I hope you don't think I'm going to be a failure...  I'm really not a dessert eater...  But, I was having one of those "it's now or never" kinda feelings last night. Today is a new day.  Back to high protein / low carb!  I want to lose MORE weight before I go back to the doctor!

Congratulations on the wt loss. Don't beat yourself up on the dessert. I think everyone deals with the last meal syndrome.  Tressa

Nice job on the 9.5 Dot, and truely dont worry about the dessert.  I beat myself up now cause I didnt have that last dessert... lol  Hubby and I went to eat at cheesecake factory.  I had a salad he had a burger and fries and neither of us had any cheesecake.  And Cheesecake is my FAVEEEEE....  Oh well, I am a better me I guess. 

I have only been to cheesecake factory one time and that was probably 8 years ago...  So, do they have sugar free cheesecake? Just wondering......  I know when I went I had oreo cookie cheesecake!  It was delicious!  Of course, all of us got something different and sampled everyone else's too!
