Had an AWESOME 6 month check up yesterday.......(pic) :)

I just had to share about my appointment yesterday!! Everything was good, good and good!! Doc was happy with my progress, and all my blood work came back great!!

When they told me that my blood work showed NO signs at all of diabetes or being pre diabetic I started to cry. It came out of nowhere, but all I could think is I guess that worrying about getting diabetes bothered me so much more than I thought. My grandpa on my dad's side and my dad both got late on set diabetes so with my weight I just assumed I would get it at some point. It was such a relief to hear that now I will not.

We also set up a date to have my ventral hernia removed from my lower right abdomen and I am so happy to be getting rid of that. Herman (as we refer to him in our house) needs to go, he was the reason I started this WLS journey and now with my weight loss so far he shows and is paining me more then ever. Good Riddance Herman!!

Now onto my next goal of reaching 175lbs. Doc feels I should have no problem achieving this and so do I!!

I attached a pic of me taken at my docs pre op appointment and one my hubby took me of my yesterday!!

Oh I am sure something will be done for him. My 16 yr old daughter wants to keep him in a jar and bring him home.

I'd offer to be a pallbearer, but how do you lift a "hole"?!

You're going to feel a "hole" lot better when this is all said and done!!!! PUN INTENDED!!!!!

This made me laugh. Herman has taken on a life of his own. To bad it's getting cut short very very soon!!!!!
