6 week check up

Mar 22, 2010

Well today is suppose to be a happy day but for what ever reason since I left the doctor's office
I have been so sad. I think I am beating myself up mentally. lol
My doctor wasnt impressed with the fact that i have only lost 25lbs since surgery. I felt like a
three year old being chastized for sticking my hand in the cookie jar (which I havent!!). My down fall however
is not being consistant w/ exercise so I know this is my own fault.
He gave me the lecture about cardio and getting my heart rate up...blah blah!! Then he back doors that by saying he isnt too concerned w/ the weight loss that he really just wants me to work on increasing the exercise and focus on getting heart rate up. THANKS NOW THAT YOU RUINED MY DAY AND MADE ME FEEL LIKE CRAP!!!  I havent been taking my fluid pills since surgery so i have had some swelling..he said i can take them every other day or so. At least he noted that I probably have 3-4 lbs of fluid on my legs.

So that was my wonderful visit with Dr Rutledge today. Hope everyone had a better day than i did!!
