HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME !!!! YEAHHHH!! i am never this excited about my birthday, so i had to express it somewhere:) My husband, son and myself went to Red Lobster for lunch, so nice since my son never want to be out with us anymore. I love red lobster but the downfall there is those great biscuits. I can make a meal just out of those and my salad. LOL

Well today was my second doctor's appointment and everything went really good. I am now at 421.2 that is a 8 pound loss in the last month -- i am sooooo happy as long as i continue in that direction. I also have my blood work done  -- vit. D a little low so add another pill to take but only 1 a week so not to bad. My chest x-ray, GB ultrasound, EKG, And stress test all looked good. So i am now on a roll. I see the Dietian and Psychologist for the 1st time on June 18th, then Dr. desimone office again on July 10th, second dietian on July 16th, and back to my sleep apnea doctor on August 18th. I am so excited i am heading in the correct direction for the first time in a very long time -- just hope it continues --i have been doing good not being at work for the last 3 months but i return to work part time on monday --i can not wait I have been sooo board. And i am actually getting excited for my birthday is coming up so fast on June 9th. Well that is it for now.  Hope everyone else is having a great day!

          Well lets see i had my first doctor appt. today and all went good. Stepped on the scale for the first time in 3 months and really expected the worst since i have been out of work for 3 months and still out for at least another month due to torn muscle in my knee. I really expected to have gained weight but to my surprise i lost about 5 pounds (I not know how since i am not able to walk or anything other then physical therapy 3 times a week. So the first appt is officially 429.2.
         So lets see the doctor took care of My worst fears for today anyways --i had it in my head that i would go see him and he was going to tell me i am not someone who should have this surgery. But instead he says i am a very good candidate --the only thing i do not like is he said he would most likely have to do open instead of lapro. just because of my size and my bmi. But he said it is not written in stone so if i can loose enough weight he could still do it lapro since i have to wait 6 months before surgery anyways just because of my insurance. 
           So now i need to start losing weight --hmmmm anyone got any good ideal on how to start this. I think i am going to try my WW an=gain but i always loose just to regain and i really need to loose and keep loosing at a good pace so i can loose at least 60-65 pounds in 6 months is my goal. For the doctor i only need to loose 5 % or 22 pounds.
