So I went to my OB/Gyn yesterday for my annual (actually i hadn't been in 2 years) and he hadn't seen me since I weighed 350lbs. . . he wandered in, chart in hand, face in chart and said, "so Mrs. . . . how have you been?" I answered "just fine" . . . he looks up from the chart and literally yelled "LOOK AT YOU!" OH MY GOSH WOULD YOU LOOK AT YOU!!!!!!! YOU LOOK GREAT! then he calmed down and asked how I did it, I told him and he said "well good for you! I can't get over how good you look" . . . I must have been blushing cause he just smiled and said amazing. . . did the exam and actually talked to me. . . talked to me about my family, my work, how i was feeling etc. . . wow it was really a NSV. . . kinda embarrassing but nice. . .

Then I went to the WLS nut and this was my last visit and I have hit the target weight! I was soo happy . . . NP and I both did the happy dance. . (she is so cool) I don't go now til 2012. . . wow can you believe it's been a year!

That is SO AWESOME! You must feel great.

AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Good for you!

AWESOME!!!!! I am soo happy for you!!!

WHooot!!! Sounded like a very good appointment! Heehee!! You go wit your bad self!!

Congratulations!

thanks all. . . yes the feeling was awesome, however, I did have that fleeting moment of "how come you actually "see" me now and talk to me face to face, not like before" It's too bad how fat people are kinda placed on the back burner but they don't realize it until something like this happens huh?????

This is a fab NSV ... congrats on hitting your 'offical' goal too.... well done you!! =]

Thank you coops! Life is good and is just getting better. . . WL doc wanted to know what now? I told him, "we'll see" he said I was afraid you'd say that. . . just don't get too thin ok? NP stated if I got better looking then her she would be hating on me. . . silly woman!

Wow, that has to be one of the top NSVs of all time -- congrats!!!

Thank you Juliarh! It certainly was exciting!

Congrats!

Oh man that is awesome!! It is nice once your use to people knowing you as thin to know you can still shook people. I love when say "I can't imagine you weighing 80 lbs more" but when I was heavy it was "I can't imagine you looking any different, are you sure you want to lose more weight"

KUDOS for making your "official goal'. GOTTA LOVE YOUR SLEEVE.

Congratulations! Doesn't it feel great?
