Guest guest Posted April 5, 2001 Report Share Posted April 5, 2001 Yesterday, was my three month (even though it is closer to four months) check up with Dr. Gagner and Niccole and it went FABULOUS! I was never so happy to get on a scale as I was at that moment. I have lost atleast 75 pounds and Dr. Gagner moved up my second procedure to June 26. YES!!!!! He would like to see me lose another 30 pounds prior to then and Niccole suggested I have a protein shake for one of my meals. No problem. My blood results came back and now I am beginning to take Iron Pills twice a day. I finally understand why I have been so tired lately. The best part was after I met with Dr. Gagner there was a lovely lady ( and I am so sorry but I don't remember her name) who had met me at the support group meeting in Feb., and she could not believe the difference between me then to now. It felt so incredible when she told me I looked half my size. I hope no one minds my exuberance but this is truly the first time that I know that this is possible and the person who has wanted to come out is emerging.
