Greetings on a very hot June afternoon! My visit went well with Dr. Sherman today. I had LOST 2 pounds and he was pleased. Our discussion focused on now, perhaps, I'm to the point where possibly 5 or more will drop per week.

As I've stated prior to today...this is all a P R O C E S S!! Although I had pounds pour rapidly immediately after this dance began, it had to slow at some point! My spirits are lifted again and I'm prepared to boogie on down the path!

My compliments to all of my surgical 'team' at BCM! Those are some of the most wonderful people in the world. One thing I didn't realize when this began that I suddenly was wrapped in my own little world of tremendous doctors and specialists! What a change in this kids life!!

Dr. Sherman's 'right arm' came into the exam room after the stick and fill. It was necessary for me to change next month's appointment due to a weekend trip to Dallas. iteachTEXAS is having our annual Conference and, although I tried to skip, I was informed it was a necessary thing!! Monica is so terrific.

As she opened my FILE to check numbers/stats and such, we began a discussion. They always begin with "how are you doing"? My reply is always with a smile..."I'm great. I've had early success and tremendous health rewards"! Then, she said, "it's your three month, I need new pics before you leave"! OMG!

She showed me the two original pics of me the week before surgery. Holy cow!! I looked like death dressed in all black as I always wore in past days!! Unbelievable!! Yes, there's a new me and I can't wait for the next several months to walk by.

Today, I understand. I know where I'm at in this scenerio, I know that I'm into the right hand lane for slow traffice (and, that's okay) ... but most of all ... I know this is still the best thing I have ever done in my entire life!!!

May each of you have something remarkable happen in your life this week. Matters not if it's simple or complex ... it just matters that something happen! Wishes for a great weekend!
