Surgeon Testimonial

David Suh, M.D.
Dr.Suh gave a very good seminar. He was very nice, but didn;t get to spend much time with him. His office staff was really nice, but his helper that weighed us in etc. is a little abrupt and rushed. Long office waits.

These weeks go by soo fast. Another 2 and a half lbs since last week !!! Down to 173. surgery day was 271 and pre=surgery high was 302. . 2 more lbs to meet my 3rd goal of 100 lbs since surgery. I have notices everything is getting more saggy with these last couple of lbs, but I also still have a hard time getting in my excercise like I';m supposed to. Thankfully my job is very physical, so at least that';s something. . Everybody else have a great week.

What a week
on August 15, 2008 9:31 pm
Wednesday was the first day of 3rd grade for my daughter. She was a little upset that none of her friends were in her class, but her teacher seems soo much better than last year, so she has had a good first couple of days. Since she was back in school, My husband and I decide on the spur of the moment to go car shopping. Both of our cars were  kind of old, so by noon we had a new Kia Optima. I was surprised that the main thing we both cared about was that we both wanted red, . It is the first new care we bought since my daughter was 6 mth, so she was thrilled when we picked her up from school. She keeps saying it is going to be her car when she is 16, then I started freaking out realizing that it is only 8 yrs till she will be driving. Everybody have a great week-end.

My week=end
on August 8, 2008 11:15 pm
Took the grandkids to Legoland today , along with my 8 yr old and her friend. Our 2 yr. old grandson was quite a handful. The rides require an adult with the child on most of them and it was soo nice to be able to fit in those little airplanes. Last year when we went , my husband had to take turns . . Going to take all of them to the beach tomorrow, so I better get to bed. Have a great week-end.
