4 months down 2 to go!!!

Well I had my 4th appointment today.  It went very well.  Since my scale ran out of batteries sometime around Christmas I was very nervous to go to a weigh-in today.  But I must be learning how to eat correctly. Even with Christmas, 3 weekends on the road for hockey, and my birthday I still lost 4 pounds.  It is not the greatest but at least I did not gain weight!  
I talked to my Dr today about the process now as far as insurance etc. He sounded optimistic.  He stated it can take anywhere from 2 hours - 2 weeks to get an answer on approval.   I'm trying to plan the surgery around 2 benefit rides that my husband and I plan every year.  I have to be in good riding shape by the middle of June.  I'm sure things will go just fine, but with the luck I have I always worry.  Have a great day everyone.

Good to hear that you are progressing through the monthly steps.  We do not need to depend on the scale to show improvement, I feel it in my joints and the way my clothes fit.  Keep up the great work getting ready for surgery Lucy.  hugs, Kathy

With all that you had going on, 4 lbs sounds great! Hope you get good news really fast forn the insurance company. Take care.

Great job!  I notice many of us here, myself included tend to say "just 2 lbs or only 4 lbs" But if you use that how many sticks of butter visual, you can really appreciate the achievement! So you lost 16 sticks of butter! thats AWESOME! and thats a lotta butter! lol
YES!!!! keep up the awesome work gal!

I am going to have to remember that.
