 female, 54 years old Belleville (near St. Louis, MO), IL | October 26, 2009, 1:44 pm Doctor's VisitWell, I had my 6-month routine doctor's appointment today. As an added bonus, I managed to develop an upper respiratory infection just in time to see him. lolThe first thing he noticed was my BP, which was 122/68 ... and he was VERY pleased. I just smiled and said, "I think there's something else you'll like." He turned the page, and said, "Oh, wow!" And, he looked at me and smiled, then did the calculations for the weight lost. "Look at you ... that's great!" I then pulled out my Nutrimirror pamphlet, a copy of my Reflection analysis for my time on NM, and 2 weeks of food logs. "I've got some reading material for you." Then I launched into my NM spiel. I knew I liked my doctor for a reason ... he looked at the material and scanned my food logs, and we had a nice discussion of what I've learned using the NM tool, and he seemed impressed with my "lifestyle change". He said he'd seen other sites, but most were not very user friendly. He said he'd definitely check out NM and, depending on what he saw, would recommend it to other patients. Yay! I will have my blood drawn tomorrow for cholesterol levels -- should have the results maybe by Friday. My previous levels were: 262 total and 171 LDL. Doc said he's sure those levels will be down. And, shortly before the appointment was over, he said if I continue on this path, I will probably be off my BP medication sometime next year. Then, to top it all off, as I was leaving, he said, "I've got something special for you." I followed him to the medical assistant's desk, and he told one of the assistants he needed a special. The next thing I knew he put a sticker on me that said "I'm a star patient." LOL He said, "I don't give out too many of these, but you deserve it." Needless to say, I was beaming. When I get my cholesterol results, I'll let you know.
