6 Week Doctor Visit

Feb 12, 2010

Yesterday I went for my 6 week check.  The scale in the doctor's office is 2lbs heavier than my scale at home so I hate stepping on the scale there....lol  They also go by my weight a month before surgery, instead of my surgery day weight.  I find that just odd, I go by my surgery weight, which I hate to say was more.  I think I am going to invest in a new scale.  I also discussed the fact that I keep stalling.  They are not concerned at all.  They actually said to me, you are smaller so you are not going to lose weight as fast and you were also active before surgery so you cannot compare yourself to others.  I have never been called small my entire life.  I was 309 lbs the day of surgery!  That isn't small, but I guess my doc deals with people much larger than I and I look "small" to them.  Not to mention I was 314 a week and a half prior to surgery.  Crazy.  I am looking forward to the scale moving again. 

My big issue at the moment is headaches.  I can't seem to stop having them.  I have had one off and on for the last 4 days.  I go to my family doc on Monday so if it is still happening I will mention it.  Just really dragging me down.  Week 7 is a few days away.  I plan on making this my loser week.  Wish me luck!
