Wheew.. I LOVE MY DOC!

:smile:Ok sooo as i stated yesterday... i was very afraid to go to my follow up appointment with Dr B because after being on prednisone for pneumonia and also stopping smoking i had gained some weight which i am NOT happy about.. But wow did he make me feel soooo much better! He said to me .. " Listen, thats what your here for, to get help with losing weight. Thats what i can help you with. You concentrate on the two things i can't help you with which is staying off the smokes and using your Cpap machine, and lets not worry bout the rest. Get back on track and i'll help you to lose the weight." :) LOL i had to put that in a mellow light color because he is such a soft speaker and calm LOL.. but yes that was a great appointment because not only did he make me feel better but he put me back on track and i want to do well again and show him on my next 6 week follow up that i'm back on track. Run down now is because of the set back with pneumonia.. i have two more breath tests for smoking and 6 weeks of cpap. soo surgery is now looking like end of august beginning of september!! :lol:

Congrats! My doc is cool too -- maybe they have developed those personalities and skills working with bariatric patients?

Well good luck and take care!

The best thing you can take from that appt is just what he said..he is there to help you and PLEASE do not forget that no matter what is going on..regardless if you lose weight or gain it. Many people gain weight and get embarrassed so they don't go see thier doc and everything gets out of hand. The doc is there to help us so let them!!! Take care!!!
