Surgeon Testimonial

Les Miles, M.D.
Dr. Miles seems very down-to-earth, and is easy to talk to. He answered my questions fully, and gave explanations in terms that weren't over my head, yet he didn't talk down to me. He fully explained the risks of surgery, but he was very upbeat, and confident, which was very reassuring.

Just a quick update. Things are going well. My weight is stable at around 150 (give or take a pound or two). I got a slight unfill this week, since I've been on the tight side since the port replacement surgery. I'm now back to eating still-warm food again, hooray!

I'm leaving tomorrow to attend the World Spinning and Sport Conference in Miami, FL, and to be filmed for an infomercial on Spinning. Who knows whether or not I'll be included in the final production, but I'm excited about getting the free trip and being able to attend the conference.

I'm in the process of becoming a fitness instructor, and have accepted a job teaching Spinning a couple of days a week. I just love saying, "I'm a fitness instructor."  I certainly never thought 21 months ago that I'd ever say those words, and IT FEELS GOOD!
