My Update from the Doc

Hi all I went to the Doc yesterday, all is well I lost another 8lbs in two weeks. I have started walking I am sure that is why I have lost the 8lbs. I have numbness in my legs, I was telling the Doc about it and he says (ready) well your belly is pressing on a nerve and we need to talk about removeing some of this (my belly) OMGosh I was so not ready for that. I am so afraid of more surgerys I did not do so good on my first one and I am sure that this will be a much bigger surger. He is talking about taking the skin for around my back to the front. He says it will help my posture (SP?, sorry can not spell worth a pooh LOL). So he took my blood for the first time yesterday, says he will call me if not he will see me in 3 weeks. 3 weeks, yeah, I was going ever 2 weeks, and by his charts I have lost 120lbs in 10 weeks, he was so happy. He says I am right on track, he was smiling like kid on Christmas. Anywho that is my news.. Talk to you Later, Melissa

Wow Melissa, That is exciting and scary! Congrats on being able to get around!! And 120 pounds!!! Wow...that's a whole person. You are doing such a great job!!! I am happy that I crossed paths with you and get to share this amazing journey with you (as well as everyone else here on OH). Dawn
