90lbs 90lbs, I've lost 90lbs...

And I never want to find them again!!!

I told my surgeons asst yesterday at my 9 mos f/up that I'm just not seeing the weight loss.  She came back in a little while later & showed me my pic from my first visit there.  Wow!    So yeah.  I definitely saw the difference.  I need a copy of that pic.  One of my friends who live out of state wants an updated pick on my FB profile.  It has the same pic as above & that's about 2.5 years ago.  Guess I'll need to find someone who will take a pic for me cuz I don't have any.  Holly?  Are you reading this????

Dr Nair was extremely pleased with my progress.  I was worried he'd really get on me about not getting weight training in yet.  He said he understood I just need to work through it.  He asked if I actually wanted to go to a gym, stressing that it's not for everyone.  And that's the thing.  I do want to be involved in one.  I enjoy working out on weight equipment... and used to really enjoy step classes when they were all the rage (dating myself).  I'm looking forward to getting the nerve up to trying Zumba at some point.  He's happy with my walking & a few of my friends gave me some suggestions to compliment the walking till I'm ready to face the gym doors.  So I know I can do this. 
Bloodwork was great.  Was a little worried about that because I've had such a hard time kicking a cold/sinus infection.  So that's good to know.  We talked about doing a fill, but it isn't the best idea while I still have the sinus drainage.  Disgusting as it is, it takes up room in the stomach as well.  It's safer to wait until I've kicked it. 

My little yorkie Daisy and I went for our walk last night.  I was feeling pretty good so we added on some distance.  Poor little thing with her dinky little legs was pretty tired.  I think I better call the vet & see how far I should be walking her.  I might need to walk her only so far & then carry her the rest of the way.

Looking forward to the weekend.  I'd just like to relax.  But for now, lunch is over & need to head back to my desk.  I'm so cold today!  Heard that happens with weight loss.  Wish I'd of brought a sweater.
