6 months

Nov 17, 2014

I went to my 6 month appt today! First of all, I can't even believe it's already been 6 months! Second, it was great to hear how well I am doing and how great I look. That made my day :) all my labs are good except my good cholesterol was a bit low and that is something I have struggled with even before so maybe with time... She wants to have me try to start weaning off the Prevacid and cardizem to see if my spasms have improved or gone away so I will start by not taking Prevacid and see what happens. I never thought I would be this close to goal at only 6 months out, especially, after being set back physically with the gall bladder surgery. I am determined to keep on keeping on and get to where I need to be. She said the pain on my right side doesn't feel like a hernia and could just be scar tissue. She also said my extra skin should improve over time. My skin has lost a lot of volume very quickly and hasn't had time to catch up. So I am currently in a six junior 11/misses 9'or 31" pant compared to a plus size 22/24 and I am in a comfortable large (could try med) compared to a 2x/3x top. I have gained some of my height back. I went from 5'8" to 5'8 3/4" now! I would not say my feel have shrunk but my shoes feel a little bigger or maybe just more comfortably fitting now. Anyways....been a long day of mostly driving....going to bed now.  Don't go back until May unless something happens.
