Hey Family

I went to see my surgeon yesterday and I have three things left.. EKG, sleep study and to see the nutritionist!! I am so excited that I am almost there.

AND...... When I first started going to the DR. (July 19) I found out that I was 450! I was so upset so I decided to go on a diet while I was going through the WLS process to get my weight and BMI down. Well yesterday when I stepped on the scale it said.... 412!!!!

I am so proud of myself. It must be the SF popsicle addiction.

Everyone have a Nice Weekend! Kay

Hey Jenn. Thanks! Its good to know that your doing good too. I am having RNY. I thought about the band in the beginning but because Of my weight, the surgeon said the RNY would be better for me because I weigh so much. Kay

(((((((((KAY!)))))))))) WAY TO GO GIRL!!! That is so great!

Thirty eight pounds! Go to Sam's Club, BJ's or Cosco and pick up a 25 lb bag of flour and then a 10 lb bag of sugar and then a 3 lb block of cheese. Walk around with that and you will REALLY know that you are lighter when you put them down!!!
