Doctor update...

Hello! I had my follow up appointment this morning and all is well! He said I do not have to see him again as long as it stays good until next January. He said the adhesive will come off on it's own and not to help it, thank goodness!! I was afraid he was going to rip it off today lol. Also no lifting or exercise for 3 more weeks, I can handle that. I just need to figure out how to get Sophie to the groomer, that poor dog needs a haircut ha. 


He did tell me I just have one of those weird diseases, well of course I do lol, we wouldn't expect anything less from me! 

That's all for now - I'll blog tomorrow about my weight! I'm not expecting anything much, I feel that since I hit 20 pounds I've just stalled out which is why I was hoping I could start exercising but I will listen to the doctor and wait 3 weeks!

Until next time...

Survived surgery, barely survived the scale...

I had my surgery on Monday and so far it's okay. Definitely moments of pain! But I'm off the pain killers, just Ibuprofen as needed 👍🏻 I try not to take them.

So I didn't stay for the meeting this week at Weight Watchers but I did go weigh in this morning and the results...


As I mentioned last week I was just hoping to maintain and I did! So even though it's not a loss this week I'm okay with that!

Well onto the healing and next week maybe I'll have a recipe to share! Until next time...

A day late, with good reason...

I didn't forget to update yesterday, we had guests over night! It was so great to spend time with my lovely friend Janae and her son Xander. We had a great visit and then I dropped them off at the airport today. Come back soon!! I miss you already!! 

I didn't even think to get a picture with you...


Last week went great with the weight. I think maybe I was preparing for this coming week with the surgery lol, because my number was definitely lower than I thought....


Woooohooo! 

I got another - 5 pound sticker, 5 more pounds and I get another charm!

I went by my dad's after my meeting and he asked what my goal is for the coming week with the surgery. I told him I'm not pressuring myself I just hope to maintain. I'm just waiting for this surgery to be done and heal and get on with it! Send out those thoughts and prayers Monday morning at 6:30 a.m. that's when my surgery is!  This is just a test to how strong I can be, I got this!!!! #inittowinit!

Until next time...

Wait...

I wanted to add that my doctor called this morning to tell me that she can't refill my meds until she sees me and she had an appointment this a.m. at 8:30 so I went (luckily my guests slept in!) and we discussed that I need to get current blood work because with the weight loss there is a chance I don't need to be on the Metformin for Diabetes. And that, my friends, is why I'm working so hard! I mean to look and feel good of course but to get off of these meds! It was a great positive appointment, so I just need to get my blood drawn before March 23rd. She of course understood with the surgery I need some time. #inittowinit!
