Surgeon Testimonial

Brian Gluck, D.O.
Dr. Gluck is wonderful. He is down to earth, compassionate, and honest. I think he has a wonderful group of ladies that work with him. The whole team is very nice. Once you walk in, you feel like you are part of the family. From what I know right now, the family doesn't go away after surgery. They expect you to follow up with them quite often right after surgery then yearly. They want to guide you down the right road and make sure you stay on track. That is a huge benefit, it is a gift from them to you, to help you stay on track. rnrnrn

11 Months Post Op
on November 18, 2010 8:59 pm
I'm just over my 11 month marker... HOLY COW!!!!! Time has flown! I can't believe it. I am sticking to a weight between 110-115 (depending on the day) and have been here for about 5 weeks now. My original goal weight was 135lbs, so I'm a little lower than that. But no complaints! I'm healthy! My labs are normal. My fertility issues are resolved. My life span has probably tripled. I just can't believe that a year ago I was wearing size 22 pants. Now I'm in a size 2. That right there amazes me.
I get to have my one year visit with Dr. Gluck next month. I'm eager to see what he says. I'm really eager to see that pre-op photo that they took.
Until then, hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving. This year I am thankful for oh so much, I hope you are too.

Well, the class reunion went well. There were a few that didn't recognize me. I didn't get too many comments to my face, but as soon as I walked away the chit chat began. This time I actually enjoyed it!
I am doing really well. Holding my weight in the low 120's. I was hoping not to go any further, so I'm pleased. My labs are all coming back wonderfully. I am taking in enough protein. Starting to experiment a little on the extras. Nothing naughty, but I am expanding my diet to a little beyond protein bars and chicken, so that's good. 
Enjoy these last days of summer. Fall will soon be upon us! Time to rake the yard!!

Ok, so tomorrow I will be 8 months post-op. I am doing wonderful!! I can't believe it! I have my 10 year school reunion tomorrow. I can't believe it. Oh how time flies. But I am kinda nervous about it... well nervous and excited. I am just curious how many questions I'll get asked. We shall see.
Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!

Ever crave a candybar???

I was getting a little stressed and hormonal today. I went shopping. My way of relaxation... but my mind was on a mission! I wanted chocolate! I looked at all my normal protein bars, nothing sparked, but then I found Snickers Marathon Crunchy Honey and Toasted Almond! OH MY!!! This is it! Not too much sugar. Not too much fat. Only 10 grams of protein verses my normal 20 grams, but who cares, it looked yummy to me! I opened that packet up as soon as I left the store. DELICIOUS! I savored every bite. Almost too good to be true! I had to share....
Hope everyone has a marvelous Friday and an exceptional weekend!

Summertime Update
on July 21, 2010 3:53 pm
This summer has been in the mid to upper 80's. I must say that it is alot more comfortable now though. I think my internal thermostat was seriously adjusted! I still don't like the humidity for sure, but the heat I can handle. I am just hoping that this winter I don't freeze to death! LOL
Anyway, since I am able to get outside and not be glued to the air-conditioning, we have been doing alot of cooking on the grill. I am a HUGE fan of Benetino's Bistro Sensations sausage. They can be found at Walmart in the hotdog/brat area. One sausage is almost 3 ounces. It has about 15-19 grams of protein, depending on the flavor, low fat, and absolutely delicious! Even my husband loves them (he doesn't know that they are chicken sausage yet though, he he he).
I hope everyone is having a wonderful summer as well. Enjoy the heat like we never have before!
