Got to tell the Dr. I lost weight

HeidiCooksSupper · June 2020

Gave me a warm, fuzzy feeling today to let the doctor know I lost 26 pounds since the last time I saw him.

That's great!!!! Must have been a wonderful feeling!

Oh that's gotta be sweet. Most docs probably don't hear that too often.

Well done! I hope the doctor was suitably impressed.

I'm waiting for that one. I've lost 35 lbs and I'm supposed to go back soon for a vitamin D test. I'm hoping she will see it in the chart, lol.

I lost 30 pounds and I think my Doctor gained it. Oops.. she thought I did good though.

Doctors are human, too, with the same stresses and responsibilities as the rest of us, probably tenfold.

Last time I saw my Gastro doc and was complaining bitterly about the hell of GERD, he looked me in the eye, and implored me,” I’ve been there. You need to loose weight. I did it. You can do it. That will do more for your problem than any medication I can give you. “

Stupidly, I looked at him and thought to myself, yeah right. You’re thin and fit and don’t understand.

No, it was ME who didn’t understand.

He was in the back of my mind when I started the weight loss, and I walk or bike past his office several times a week. I really need to go in and thank him. He was the only doctor who was brutally honest.

A friend once taught me that there are a finite number of pounds in the world and we all just keep passing them around.
