June 2001
I will see Dr. Thayer at the end of this month, and I have a much
longer list of questions for him than when I first met him. I want
to make sure my doctor is comfortable with a lot of questions from
me and I want to see that he takes the time to answer them all.
I know this will be the case with Dr. Thayer.
After this next appointment with him I have no more appointments
until a little bit before the surgery where I have all my pre-op
work done and a gall bladder ultrasound. I hope I get to keep my
gallbladder, I'm sorta fond of the little guy. And I would hate
to have to become best buddies with Immodium AD.
I continue to lose weight and this month am down to 259, a total
loss of 47 lbs. from when I decided to pursue WLS. New pics are
in the Pictures section. I have set a personal goal for myself:
to reach anywhere in the 240's by my July 7 vacation. I'll have
to work hard to reach that, but it's only when I get in the 240s
that I'm able to fit in roller coaster rides, and I plan on going
to two different Six Flags on vacation.
At this month's Obesity Support meeting at NWH they had a plastic
surgeon who showed pics of tummy tucks and other things. It was
great to see how they can get rid of all the excess skin you have
after losing large amounts of weight, but the down side is the scars
really are IMO very large and noticeable. Whaddya gonna do
it's 6 of one or a half-dozen of the other...
