I am so excited today.  I weighed today at water exercise, and I have lost 16 pounds!!!!!  As of last week Tuesday, I have lost 11  1/2 pounds since I started LEARN class.  I am learning so much about nutrician, eating habits, eating triggers, etc.   I would strongly suggest everybody who is considering gastric bypass surgery go through this course. 

I am supposed to  have some blood tests done this month and send them to Mayo Clinic.  They also want a report from the teachers of LEARN.  After they review the results of both these items, they are going to decide whether I can have surgery.  I am feeling anxious and nervous about the decision.  I hate to get my hopes up again and be told that I am not healthy enough yet.  I have not been feeling very good the past two weeks, so I am going to hold off on getting the blood tests done until I feel better and stronger.
