Feeling Good & Looking Good

May 24, 2010

I am down to 160 lbs which is only 10 lbs from my first personal goal of 150 lbs.

I'm feeling good these days. Thanks to Andrea U I made changes to my iron and I'm feeling much better. I am currently taking Bifera  (two tablets-twice a day). Hopefully the Proferrin will arrive any day now as they have starting shipping it out again. I will have labs drawn this week as I see my PCP on Friday to follow up on my iron and the orthostatic hypotension issues. The orthostatic hypotension is also much improved since starting the Midodrine. 

I'm looking good too. In my new profile picture I'm wearing a geometric pattern dress size 10! I also posted pics of me in a size 8 Banana Republic linen dress. Wooo Hooo! I was never able to imagine myself this size. 

I am enjoying my RNY. It's a lot of work and trade offs but well worth the improvement in my health and being "as fine as cat hair" keeps me motivated! LOL
