Couple of Decent Appointments

I had two doctor's appointments this morning. Two hours of my life I'm never getting back. I met with a new orthopedist who did cortizone injections in both knees. We also talked about Suparts injections providing my insurance approves it. He thinks they'll really help me out, and I don't have to cut down my activities at the gym - which I'm quite happy about. I do have chondromylatia and arthritis under the kneecaps, but I knew that already. I'm too young for a knee replacement. Before I was too fat, now I'm too young.

My primary care physician was really happy I lost ten pounds since we last met about four weeks ago. I don't think she has another bariatric patient working with their weight loss center. Periodically I'll hear through the grapevine how pleased she is with how things have progressed. We're leaving my Zoloft at 100mg a day, with room to wiggle if I need it. We're also taking me off Ambien and moving to Trazadone (I only heard of it once on this site). I'm a snacker as it is, and the amnesia eatings don't leave me with warm fuzzies. I've also been on it for a few years, I figured it was time.

Total NSV: Last night my trainer did measurements. I'm down another 5.5 inches overall. My body fat has dropped 3.3% since the end of January. According to the charts, I'm 3% away from no longer being considered "obese". I think those charts are completely jacked up because I do NOT look obese.

I'm also on an Old Navy binge. I can wear their clothes and I'm completely beside myself.

Fun stuff.
