One month post-op appt.

I hear you Kelly!!!  LOL   There is SOMETHING to be said for expertise and bedside manners... just not as much.




***Don't know why this insisted on posting above your post rather than below Kelly, but I'm leaving it alone... as I enter the OH Board Twilight Zone....

are those the surgical bedside manners, or the presumed non-surgical bedside manners?

hehehehe!!!

Ruthie, my dear friend-in-the-know, of COURSE you are doin' well.  You simply follow direction from people who have been successful before you, ODAT. 

You go sista.  I watch your progress, as you are one step ahead of me as you trudge that road.

Thanks Tracey... and thanks for surfacing... I was about to get my snorkel and go lookin' for ya.  LOL

You are doing a fantastic job, Ruthie! I am sure your doctor is thrilled with your progress. I am so happy to see how well you are doing.

Awww... thanks Amy.  Funny thing the bariatric guy said... He's a real trip...

"I cringe when I have to go into see a patient at their one month appt. because so many of them make it really hard on themselves that first month... and it's such a relief to see you in here doing well and doing what you are supposed to do... if only everybody could be that way."

I say  WE  CAN!!  

yeah, my NP asked "any problems?" 
"Nope," I answered.
"Any questions?" 
"Nope," I answered.
"How ya' feeling?"
"Peachy."
"Then why are you here?" he joked.
"I was kinda wondering the same thing, big fella, but you set the appointment date." 

Actually, I did ask the surgeon if I was still restricted to picking up only 10 lbs or less, and he asked me how much weight I WANTED to pick up.  I told him the mulch bags were either 30 or 40 lbs, and he said Go for it.  

lol Glad to hear all is well, Ruthie.

My doc is not eye candy... I think that would distract me too much. hehehehe
