Check up w/ surgeon tonight!

So, my "6 month check up" (a little late) is tonight with my WLS surgeon. I am a bit nervous Its over the phone (since he is in SF and I am in DC) and I know he will ask if I am excersing, and I am not. Ug, I am just the type of person who HATES to get in trouble. A goodie-too-shoes if you will. And, I just have not been sticking with any exercise program. So, wish me luck. I will report back with the results and with any new information I have after speaking with him.

Good luck Mary Mine is on Monday and I know he wants me to have lost more weight then I have. There is no way that I will lose 6 more pounds by Monday Oh well, we do what we can

Ok, well, he called 2 hours early! So, right after I posted he called... He did mention that if I want to be at goal by December then I need to be agressive with my excersie... what?! At goal by december!!! I would love that... I figured it would take longer... but this encourages me to hit the gym more often. It was actually quite a short conversation. I am on track with my caloric average (which is 650ish, but I had VG, so I am a little different). He also suggested stepping on the scale and keeping track of my weekly weight loss... which I hadn't been doing. So, I will start being more dilegent with the monday weigh-in. Other than that, nothing new. I freaked out for no good reason... the check up went quick and well.

Glad it went well. Now you can relax the rest of the evening

Great check up! At least he gave you a goal to work towards which is realistic. You're doing just fine. Karen S.

Sounds like your doing great. Karla

Me too. Poor on the exercise and a "goodie two shoes" !!
