Surgeon Testimonial

Phillip Hornbostel, M.D.
Dr. Hornbostel is a great surgeon and his wife Margie is the best. They are always just a phone call away anytime if you need them. Perioperative care was awesome...pre-op, intra-op and post-op. They answer all of your questions and are very honest with you and concerned about your health. I would recommend them to anyone considering to have WLS. :)

nice to be a loser again

I  quit weighing...lol. I was tired of it saying the same thing. 186...187...186...lol But yesterday I decided it was time to get on it one more time only difference was I was ready to see 186 again and this time not be disappointed but instead the scale said 177lbs. It has been about 9 months and 2 weeks and I have lost 142lbs. I have lost 28.5 bags of sugar, my 3 year old almost 4 times, my 9 year old twice, a new born baby elephant, or a light weight wrestler...lol. that's crazy!!

About a month delay on losing!
on September 6, 2011 7:35 am
Well now comes a huge stall. I think I have lost a pound this month. I have started to pick on sweets and I think I have started eating a little bit more and drinking diet pop again. Plus helping out at the mexican restaraunt hasn't been to much of my benefit. I went back to my ex boyfriend about a month ago...I know I may sound silly but I missed my best friend! This time around things have been going much better. I feel like a team and family instead of riding solo. I graduated as an LPN and went and passed my big state board test! So now I am officially an LPN//be scared..lol (kidding!) Today I am going to stop being a picker...no more "just one bite", I am going to go to the gym, and quit drinking pop. I am going to choose healthier food choices and eat the portions I should be eating by measuring them out instead of guessing. 36 more pounds to go until i am at 150! Come on baby~You got this!
