Finally, an OB/GYN appointment I LIKED!!!!

[lmhall2000]

The last time I went for my check-up I wouldn't even open my eyes on the scale- and of course had vowed to lose that weight but never could stick with anything......until WISH!!! The scales showed a 40 pound loss from my last doctor's visit! Well, so maybe I lost 6 pounds between then and when I started WISH (currently at 34 pounds gone). But to see their faces- and I was fully clothed after two meals! And to top it all off I just yapped and yapped about the 2005 marathon and before I knew it- the ouchie was over and I was all done!!!

I told my OBGYN on the next visit she's going to see me under 150! It's so great that it is only 52 pounds away instead of 92! WHOOPEEEEE!!!!

And to top it all off I ENJOYED trying on swimsuits for our September Disney trip- they actually looked good to me!!

So thankful to have found you all and the great encouragement here!
Tara

Congratulations! On the weightloss and the dr visit going so well.

I can't wait for the same reaction from my OB/GYN. My appt is in September- and even at this point it's over a 60lbs loss since they last saw me/weighed me. They are going to flip out I'm sure! Since they've only seen me heavy (pregnancy with now 5.5yr old, then next pregnancy with my youngest). They haven't seen me in almost 2yrs (since my hysterectomy -I only go every 2yrs for paps starting now).

Woo Hoo!!!! Tara, that is great!!! I'll bet that Dr. would like to bottle your determination and enthusiasm so all her patients could have a dose. I'm sure you made your Dr's day!

And another Woo Hoo!!! for trying on swimsuits that look good! What a confidence booster!

You rock!!

Congratulations!!! That must be a wonderful feeling. My annual appointment is in two weeks. I'm very curious to see what I weighed this time last year, I've only been keeping track for six months. I have a feeling I'll be about the same, but I'll let everyone know.

Tara, that is wonderful!! I am sure you were bursting with pride as they read the scale, what a triumph that is, I can only imagine how great a feeling that was. Continued success on your journey!

Isn't it wonderful to see clinical results from all of your hard work? I can't wait until my next round of lab work in January; my physician already knows that I lost weight and look better...she's a friend, and lives in my neighborhood, so has seen me walking.
