James Foote, M.D. Dr. Foote is a very caring person. He made sure I knew the ins and outs of the surgery. He made me feel very comfortable with my decision.
Member Interests
Animal Rescue - I belong to MCCARES. We provide spay & neuter certificates for adopted animals

Bicycling - I bicycle 1 1/2 miles every weekday and up to 5 on the weekend
1 year -Woo Hoo, I made it Well, the doctor appointment went wonderfully. All my essential blood work is right on target. My BMI is now at a 27 from 49. My doctor remarked that my BMI is better than his because he's at a 29. He also said that I will lose at most 5 - 10 more pounds on my own (plastics will get rid of heavy skin weight). My body mass to fat ration is very good. There is very little body fat left. I lost 105.5 pounds of just fat.
I celebrated by going to a consult with a plastic surgeon for a facelift and tummy tuck. We will be doing the facelift in the next month but I have to wait 4 - 6 months for the tummy tuck because he wants to be sure I don't lose too much more and he wants me stable for at least that period of time.
I have to say that a year ago I didn't think I'd be at this point. I knew that if I lost 1/2 of what I did, I would be pleased. I have lost a person and for the first time in my life, I know what it's like to be normal and I'm celebrating.
