6 Month Check-up
I had my 6 month check-up last week (Dec. 27). All is well. Iron good; Vit A on the line, but told not to worry about it; losing an average of 2lbs./week. I need to see my GP to get my zinc done, since their 'machine' that does that was down when I did my tests, but other than that, I'm good for another 6 months.
St. Joe's doesn't do 9 month check-ups anymore, so I'm not bac****il my 1 year.
I also asked about a goal weight, since I wasn't given one. The dietician said they don't do that because they don't want people to feel pressured/depressed if they don't make it. It's all about you and where you feel comfortable with it. No pressure.
(I haven't been on the boards for a few weeks. Decided to have a computer-free Xmas break.)

MY RNY DIDN'T FAIL ME - I FAILED IT.
Kinda like their thinking about no goal. I didn't get one either but didn't ask, probably same reason.
Hope you had a great computer-free Christmas break...lol...I sure did!
