Well Damn

Went for the 2 week post op and was all proud that I lost 23lbs, 13 preop. Doctor squints at me and says- ugh you should have lost 20 lbs by now. Wow, and I thought I was doing ok. . He said well its alright but you better lose 25 by the end of October. Way to get motivated.

Two week post my weight was still up from surgery. It took me a few weeks for it to go back down. Your body will move at its own rate despite ypur doctor's expectations. Congratulations on a job well done.

your advice and admonitions are better accepted when you work it this way... grown folks do not take well to being 'fussed at'

It has been my general observation that it takes a particular personality type to be a good surgeon (cough*ragingnarcissist*cough.) That's not always the case of course, but I think it's a good thing in a lot of ways. I want a surgeon who's a competitive, detail oriented, driven perfectionist! If I want to talk about my problems and need a good listener who will offer insight I make an appointment with a therapist.

Lol- I really told him to kick rocks! It was so funny. I thought he made a bet he was do pissy.
