I had my appt today with the surgeon. It's been exactly 2 weeks today since my surgery. It went GREAT! He even wrote on my chart "Doing Great!!" Yes I looked, I'm nosy. So far to date I am am down 23 lbs since my initial consult on June 6th, and 14 since Sept 11th. Dr Kam, my surgeon, said I should be down total 80lbs by the end of the year. OMG!! I cannot even imagine that. But I guess when you break it down, 60lbs in like 12 weeks it is not nearly as daunting. I can take myself cloths shopping for Christmas. :)
My incisions are almost healed. Of course, I have had a minor set back with that. I had an allergic reaction to the tape they used to hold my incisions closed. But hopefully with a little bit allergy cream and hydrocortisone cream I will be as good as new.
Unfortunately, the fun is over too soon. I have to go back to work on Monday. But as much as I hate to admit it. I am starting to get bored. I know work itself won't be bad, it's the getting up at 5:30Am that's is going to be awful. I don't do mornings. When I stopped in to work today to turn in my return to work paper everyone was very supportive as usual. They are making this transition very easy on me. Thank you.

Good Job, keep up the good work!! Don't worry about a turtle, you will do better next week. Your body is probably just adjusting.
