6.5 month check up!
Well today was the day for my 6.5 month check up and they where so extremely proud of the results I have made! I have it Wonderland from 286.7lb to 196lbd, bmi from 42 to 29. I guess Im now no longer morbidly obese any longer, my labs are perfect, my A1C is 5.1(which is crazy cause of my diabetes being so bad before surgery I was on 3 insulins 2 sugar pills to maintain my sugars and I have been off all meds since optifast!) I feel Amazing! Dr.Chung said to me u need to get some smaller clothes they r way to big and I told him I have changed sizes of clothes 3 times already and that I am waiting to slow down before I buy more! The only thing I am worried about is that I have hit my first stall on the scale it hasn't moved for 2.5 weeks now and I'm scared out of mind! Although I am truly happy where I am now but would live to make it to 180lbs. I haven't been this size since grade school! Thanks to everyone that has gave me some great advice on some of my questions and concerns! One happy lady today!!!

When I saw you at the social worker class (wish I knew it was you), my impression was that you were shinning - no - glowing and a picture of health - you gave off super positive vibes and I loved what you contributed to the group. Keep on keepin' on :)
