Surgeon Testimonial

Kevin Cottingham M.D.
At first sight Dr. Cottingham looks very young, but don't let the youthfulness fool you. He is a very experienced surgeon and I would recommend him to anyone. He is very concerned and willing to answer any questions @ anytime. His nurses were very helpful in the approval process answering questions and guiding me through this journey.

Hey!
I knew it was going to be a few weeks before I updated my profile...as usual I am on here everyday being nosey and lurking but fail to update on myself. Anyhoo, everything is going well as far as my journey is concerned. I now weigh in @ 175lbs...and I lost this since I've been 18 months out. I truly believe that if you stick to the guidelines of the surgery you can get down to your goal and stay there. "To me" ONE of the worst things that a WLS patient can do is get so "normal" and forget that they/we had surgery. I've read alot of profiles and post of people that has regained some weight that says that once they got down to a comfortable weight some of thier old habits started creeping back in. There isn't a day that goes by that I forget that I had WLS. Actually, it seems like that's all on my mind...what to eat, what not to eat, will I gain even if I follow the rules...endless things are on my mind when it comes to me and my surgery. I have a WOW moment that I would also like to share...MY SIZE 10'S ARE TOO BIG! Yep, that's right I have to buy 8's now. This new size is exciting but its scary at the same time. If someone would have told me a year ago...hell 3 months ago...that I would be in size 8's I wouldn't have believed them. It also seems like my C cups have pruned up to B's...now that's wild! I originally wanted to get down to 170, but I really want to get to 160. Everyone is telling me that I am at a good size and I don't need to loose anymore weight, but I have to do what's best for me...when I get to 160 and I think I look sick I will adjust my eating, but never will I again pig out just to gain a few pounds to make others happy. I think the last time I did my measurements they were 36-31-41, I will do them this weekend to see if there has been a change since these numbers are from a couple weeks ago...I think I want to see 34-28-38 that'll be straight. Well that's it for now... I will also try to put up new pictures this weekend too! God Bless!
