1 doc appointment down - one to go

Nov 18, 2009

Well, I went to my appointment at my surgeon's office yesterday. Saw Dr. Tovar -- hadn't seen him since he took my drains out the day I went home from Cedars.

Anyway, he was pleased with my weight loss. He said for the next 10 months, I should lose between 5 to 10 pounds a month. He said to target 1200 calories a day.

I got myself all freaked out that I wasn't losing like I should.

I gotta stop comparing myself with other people here on OH. My sister's doc requires 600 calories a day until goal. I didn't have the same surgery, so I don't have to do the same diet. (Sorry, Lucy!)

Hopefully, lovely Lucy won't be eyeballing every carb I put in my mouth when she comes to visit next week. (Love you, Sis!)

I see my endocrinologist on Friday. He'll review my labs. We'll see.
