Yesterday my doctor commented on my weight loss! He said he can see the results! AND...his receptionist pointed at my stomach when I walked in and with a big smile said "you're losing!". AND...I was finally able to sit in the chair in his office without a problem! He has chairs with arms and I used to not fit into these chairs.

So...all in all, a pretty good day yesterday :). I was feeling so discouraged the past few days. This really helped me re-focus and stay on track.

    Congradulations and keep up the good work. Your doctor SHOULD be one of your main cheerleaders. I bet for every 100 times a doctor tells a patient to lose weight, only a couple of people actually do. It must be frustrating for the doctors. So keep it up and make your doc happy too. I just made the appointment for my annual check-up in August. He told me to lose weight a year ago. Well, I finally did!!!

    Congrats we all need that little reassurance that what we are doing is really worth our time and effort. When we see and hear people who we have not seen in a while say your losing weight it makes us relize that it is so worth the struggle. Again congrats
