4 WEEKS POST OP

I was supposed to have my first fill on Monday, but now I have to wait til next Monday the 16th. It seems the people in scheduling screwed up. I had my 2 week post-op appt. on 3/26 when it should have been 4/2 and my first fill was scheduled for 4/9 when it should have been 4/16. My surgeon said he wants me to wait a full 4 weeks and to come back next Monday (the only day he does fills). I'm okay with that I just wish they would have caught it before I wasted my time coming out there.

 

Other than that, everything is still going great. I twisted my knee working out last week and it has been really bothering me, but it hasn't stopped me from working out everyday (except Sundays). It is feeling better now, but I'm still limping around a little bit. My eating is going pretty good. I am still pretty much in control. I had a couple bad days; especially on Easter, but I just dusted myself off and got back on track. As of Tuesday, weight loss was at 27lbs!:clap2: I only weigh-in once a week at the hospital. My scale at home is all screwed up so I don't even use it. I don't want to be discouraged or given false hope by weighing myself on different scales.

 

My mother and I are going to Las Vegas next month for our annual Mother's Day Trip so my goal is to lose another 13lbs by the time we leave on May 11th. That will put me at a 40lb loss!!! We'll see how that goes!
