Topic: RE: OH MY GOODNESS!!!!!!!!!!!!
THANK YOU VERY MUCH! Now, I do not know if I will go see the Dr. tomorrow cuz it is supposed to snow! I live about an hour and a half away, and AM NOT a good driver on snow and ice. I have to take my children with me too, and I hate to take them out on the road in those conditions. So, I am just going to see how it is in the am, and maybe reschedule! Thanks so much for your support! Sometimes, I look in the mirror and look exactly the same to myself. DO you ever feel that way? It is weird, all of this getting used to stuff I guess. Anyway, keep in touch. You are cool peoples!!!

Topic: RE: Anyone with very low B12 numbers?
My B-12 was low at 3 months so I get B-12 shots montly at my PCP and I take a Sublingual B-12 supplement daily. I just had my 6 month labs, and my levels were good, so I am going to keep up with the shots/supplements.

Topic: OH MY GOODNESS!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am totally freaked out right now. Went to Walmart to get some smaller pants and I actually fit into a size 8! The last time I fit into a size 8 was um....well...22 years ago. I went out and got another size 8 just to make sure it was true lol. I LOVE LOVE my surgery and am so thankful I had it done. Best decision I ever made. I have to wear stretchy waists still because of all of my JELLY BELLY but you cannot have it all right? I go to the DR. Thur. for my six month check up. Kinda scared of all the blood work. Keep your fingers crossed for me. U all are so awesome on here, and I know you know how weird it is to be buying smaller clothes...it is like unreal!!!
Topic: RE: Anyone with very low B12 numbers?
I take Sublingual B-12 that is 2500mcg from Walmart. My PCP says all my labs were good. Now I don't know if the surgeon will agree so I will have to wait 2 weeks before I go and see him.
