FLOWERDUDE's Journal, 22 June 2011

so.... 1st doctor's visit since beginning weight loss... my b.p. meds were running out..and quite frankly.. I have been taking a half dose for more than 6 months..slowly been tapering off..and these last 3 weeks before my appointment.. no meds.. just so I could get a true read on the visit.
The doctor came in ... sat down.. looked at my chart... looked at me... looked back at the chart... looked at me... and asked with a smirk. "do I have the right chart?" He confirmed my birth date and I said "how are you?" and he said... I think you're about to make my day!
He asked me how I lost the weight..and I told him Atkins and Fatsecret.com.
Not ONE negative thing was said about Atkins.. he was astounded, proud and quite frankly dazed. Pretty dandy cool if you ask me. :)
I told him I hadn't been on meds as well... soooooo

Oh yea...and I no longer have to take b.p. meds!! Bwhahahahahaha!

So awesome. Love doing that happy dance with my doc when she likes what she sees. Can't wait to be able to get off the BP meds too!

I can't imagine how happy you must have felt hearing that kind of news. It makes me just smile from ear to ear. I'm doing the happy dance and now I'm singing a song too. Good thing it is a little early at work otherwise I'd be getting some strange looks right about now.
