Christopher Hart, M.D. Dr. Hart is an excellent surgeon who takes a lot of pride in keeping his statistics clean. He seems to be a man of very few words, but always takes the time to answer any questions you may have. I have not felt rushed at any appointment so far. His staff has always been very accommodating & friendly. The aftercare program is thorough, except for a physical trainer or on-staff counselor. However, I would rate him a 9 out of 10. I would give a 10 if he were more personable. :>) I would highly recommend Dr. Hart to any of my friends or family considering any WLS.
So this is what happens when... You don't exercise!!! I only lost 1.2 pounds this week. I'm pretty bummed about this, but have no one to blame but myself. I simply didn't make exercising a top priority this week (plus I got stung by a wasp & my ankle swelled up, doc said to stay off it). You can bet this will light a fire under my ass for this week!!!!!
My goal is to get to 50 pounds by my 3-month check up w/Dr. Hart. I'm going to have to really bust it to get there. I think I can do it, though.
Everything else is going well. Still no vomiting/nausea. Feeling great! Very happy that I had the surgery. Starting to not recognize my image in mirrors. All our full length mirrors are in storage right now, so it's a surprise when I do get a glimpse. Really, really anxious to get to 50 pounds. I'm not sure why that number means so much to me, but it does. I have to come up with something really great to celebrate it, though. Maybe I'll book a body massage or a facial. That would be a real treat!!!!!
I'm off to the park to walk. Not sure if I'll do 3 miles or try for 4 today. I feel like I need to make up for this past week!!!!!!!!!!!!!
