Default nsv-at yearly physical

i had my annual physical today, and my doc was so impressed that i had lost weight and have been doing this consistently for the past 16 months. she said all my numbers (cholesterol, b/p, etc) were "beautiful!" all through my physical she kept complimenting me on all my hard work. on the way out, she hugged me and said congrats again. ( i have been going to this same doc for years and years, and this was the first time she hugged me.) i am still about 39 lbs. away from goal weight, but this was a definite nsv that felt really good. thanks for listening!

I know that we all want to wear a smaller size, but the health rewards and prolonged lifespan are the real reward for losing weight. During my physical last year I had an elevated cholesterol level and one of my goals is to get it down into normal range.

Congratulations, those 39lbs will be gone in no time.
