First Doctor Check In

I went yesterday for my first check in with my doc.  It's my one month visit, but technically it won't be one month until Tuesday.  I was a little nervous about what the scale would say because it seems like doctor scales always make you weigh more haha.  So I didn't know if it would be good news or not.  So when the nurse asked me to step up on the scale I made sure I took off my jacket so that it wouldn't add any extra weight, cuz you know, jackets are SO heavy haha.  I stepped up on the scale and watched the digital numbers until they stopped.  It was three pounds more than what I had gotten on my scale at home a few days prior.  Then I remembered that I weigh in the morning and my appointment was in the afternoon.  So it would be off a little.  So I asked the nurse what my weight was when I came in last time according to their charts, because my dr appointments are always at the same time in the afternoon.  She read the number off to me and I quickly did the math in my head.  13 pounds down from last visit!!!  I had last 13 pounds!!!  When I weighed on Tuesday morning I was down 11 pounds, so I've lost two more pounds since Tuesday!  Yay!!  My goal was 15 pounds the first month, so I think I'm going to make it!  I'm so excited!!  If I can keep this rate up, I'll be at my goal weight in now time :)  I couldn't stop smiling after that and the doctor was really pleased with my progress.  She told me she was very proud of me for the work that I was doing to try and change my life.  So now I just have to keep doing what I'm doing!  I'll check back with her in one more month :) 

So this weekend, I'm celebrating with my friends :)  Hubby is out of town, so I'm having a sleepover with a few friends and we are going to eat sushi and watch bad movies and play Wii.  Yay!    Can't wait to share more good news with you guys as this crazy ride continues :)
