Some Tests !!!

Jan 15, 2013

So, Tomorrow I will be going to have a Pulmonary Function Test Done and to see how much weight I've lost just by changing my diet on my own. I am meeting tomorrow with my Dr's NP to discuss diet, and some things that they found on my lab work (Low Thyroid which I knew about, Low Vitamin B12 and Low Vitamin D). Everything Else (Glucose, Triglycerides, Good & Bad Cholesterol was all good). I am going to my family doctor to get my blood pressure medication and my thyroid medication, then to have a Pulmonary Function Test (Have any of you had this?) and then to my Bariatric Surgeon for the first official appointment of my 6 month diet. I am anxious to see the scale actually, and see how much weight I may have lost since changing the way I am eating and drinking lots of water daily. I hope I am at least down 10 pounds. After carrying a 10 pound bag of potatoes in the grocery store the other day, 10 pounds of fat is in a whole new perspective. I completely cut out pop, and drink nothing but water. I may have a few sips every now and then but it will not be hard at all to give up the sips and strictly water. If I have to do it after surgery, now is the perfect time to start and already be ready and have one less thing to worry about in the end.

Anyways, I look forward to updating you all tomorrow or next day on how things went. I am also going to have my husband take pictures of me :( :( :( EEEEKKK with just bra and panties from side to side / front & back that way I have something to look back at and say WOW .. I have come a long way even if it is just 1, 2, 5, or 10 pounds.
