mrs.petethecat 62 Posted August 6, 2013 One of the reasons I decided to get WLS was because of the long list of medications I had to take. My health was getting worse and I was no longer interested in doing anything I used to like. Today I am 7 weeks out, 35 lbs lighter, and on a visit to my PCP she took me off 3 of my meds and reduced 1 more. I am going to go for blood work and then see her again in a month when we may discontinue more! I feel like I am getting back in control of my life and won't wonder how I am going to get through each and every day. Feeling excited and just wanted to share! 11 MIJourney, Beach Lover, mariamitani and 8 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

clk 3,519 Posted August 6, 2013 Great news and far more valuable than the scale goals we let distract us from real success. And every time I see your screen name I think of the Pete the Cat books I read my kids each night... ~Cheri Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am a kindergarten teacher and the Pete the Cat books are some of my kid's favorite books and songs! Glad you and your children enjoy them as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
