I had a wonderful and funny thing happen last Friday at my PCP’s office. Keep in mind that I have not seen him since prior to surgery when I was trying to lose my 10% required body weight for Blue Cross to approve my surgery. I was sitting in the room and when he came in, he said, “I’m sorry but I don’t think I remember you.” I said, “Well, good! I have some pictures to show you!” And when he looked at the before/after pictures, he said “It looked like all that letter writing finally worked.” I don’t think either one of us could believe it!

He said that I was doing great, and there was no reason I couldn’t come off the Lexapro. He gave me some suggestions for weaning off the medicine. I am going to have my annual eye exam today after work, and even though it’s not time for new frames, I am getting some new ones! NEW GLASSES FOR A NEW LOOK FOR A NEW GIRL. Last night I had to give my size 16W pants to my neice. They are now too big and my other 16s are becoming baggy. 14s are just around the corner, but thank goodness my closet is packed with them since a friend of mine gave them to me prior to surgery. I remember when she gave them, some 16s, 14s, I thought, “I will never be able to wear them. Maybe I should give them to someone who could actually use them.” But now here I am, four months later, and ready for the 14s. I am so glad I chose to have this surgery.
