TODAY'S DOCTOR'S VISIT

HIP HIP HURRAH!! THREE CHEERS FOR ME AND KIRBY!

I couldn't wait to get my nimble fingers on these keys to type out the good news! My doctor's visit was on the 16 th and my doctor was all smiles! He said that he was very pleased with my diet success. I had lost ten (yes that's 10 lbs.) pounds since my last office visit! And remember how upset Kirby was when Dr. Soundappan told him that he was 4 lbs. over the overweight limit and now he was considered obese? Well, he lost 12 pounds since the last visit! Now he is trying to get his cholesterol down!

I am so excited about the weight loss because I was sure that I had NOT lost the first pound! Since I have what they call congestive heart failure, I retain fluid, especially around my legs, knees and ankles. Sometimes I can gain weight without trying or vice-a-versa! Now I can not wait until our weigh in next week! Oh and by-the-way, we have decided on the weight loss plan that we feel is the best for the long term and it is...Weight Watchers!

I hear that they have a new updated version of their plan. So, I am looking forward to checking into it and getting started as soon as possible! Keep us in your prayers!
