Surgeon Testimonial

Kenneth M.R. Warnock
I had my first consultation with Dr. Warnock on September 8, 2006. He is a very gentle and kind man. He let me know all of the risks and was very compassionate. My first appointment was scheduled for 5:00 PM on a Friday. At first I thought I would be rushed in and rushed out. (Everyone wants to go home at 5:00 PM on a Friday, rght?) I did have about an hour wait in his office but when I did get in to see him I did not feel rushed. He took his time explaining the process, the surgery, and its risks to me. I hate Doctors but I do look forward to my next visit with him and my next step towards a new life.

No news!  Stalls still SUCK!  Been nearly a month now and still floating.  The scale teased me yesterday...thought maybe it was moving downward again...but, alas, those 2 pounds were back today.  I know, I know...don't weigh everyday...but, come on already!

The hairloss started about a month ago too.  You would think that with the hair I am finding in my comb every morning that it would add up to some sort of weightloss!  Hairloss = weight stall?  

The logistics just make absolutely no sense!

Stalls SUCK!!!  

So, I have been fluctuating at 288 - 292 pounds for like 2 weeks now and it is bugging me to death!  You would think the scale would move after the 2 days of eating nothing but chicken broth because some beef rib got stuck. But, NNNOOOOO!  Doesn't help that Aunt Flow decided to drop by for a visit.  Now that she is gone I am hoping something will start to move again.  Dagnab it!  I so want to be under 275 when I visit Dr. W. on the 20th of next month!

I do have to admit that I have been baaaaddd about regular exercise.  I do have a lot more energy now and have been doing things like painting the living room and bathrooms, re-organizing the kitchen, started a little patio garden with strawberries and tomatoes.  

So, today I set goals for myself on the public boards.  My first is to walk a 20 minute mile starting tonight.  I am going to walk for 20 minutes and see where that gets me.  Eventually, I will try the "Couch to 5K Run" challange (coolrunning.com) that some one on the boards mentioned.  This plan should keep me busy for a little while.

One day at a time!
