3 month post op appt.

I had my 3 month Post Op appointment yesterda and everything went well...Doc said I was doing good. I am officially down 57 pounds . Praise be to God!!! I was excited . Although I forgot to ask him did he have a weight goal in mind for me...but oh well, I am so happy and I don't have not one complaint. If I could do it all over again, I would in a hearbeat. Every food that I have tried has agreed with me. Thank you Jesus!!! Today is my daughter's 8th birthday and I took her to Red Lobster for dinner so she could eat her crab legs and I got crab legs and shrimp scampi. Needless to say I got a doggie bag...lol... But it was not only a celebration of her birthday, it was a celebration for me on my weightloss as well. I am so happy and can't wait till a few months to see what the weightloss will be.... Take care, Stacee

Hi Stacee, It's so funny you should say 57 pounds. There's a bunch of us at -57lbs right now. I'm glad you and your daughter enjoyed her birthday meal. You are so lucky you aren't having problems with food. I had my stricture dialated on the 17th, and was fine for a while, but am starting to have problems again. Joy. Horray for you, Gosh

That is wonderful! I was mad at first that I could eat anything, but now I view it as a blessing! I can go anywhere and try a little bit of anything, and not have to worry about spending the night throwing up. We are lucky!!! Gosh-I am so sorry about your stricture. I wanted to tell you that I deal with same age crap that you wrote about on another post. I never thought about my weight being the reason people always thought I was older. I am the same age as you, and (not even me fishing for a compliment, like "how old do you think I am") people always think I am 37-40!!! There's nothing wrong with that if you are 37-40!!!

Woohoo! Good job! (hugs)

Stacee congrats on your -57#s . Sounds like you're doing wonderfully as well-WTG! Most of the foods I've tried also agree with me and I am also very thankful. You keep doing what you're doing because it's working. Elisa

Congrats to you Stacee on your loss. I will be going for my 3 month checkup on Friday. However, I weighed myself on Tuesday and i too was down 57lbs...LOL. Hmmmm interesting.... For the most part I have not had many issues with the foods I have tried, except McDonalds grilled chicken. I am not sure if it was overcooked or if I failed to chew enough. Anyway, congrats to you again and I wish you much success. Roni

Wow 57 is a popular number! Congrats Roni on your loss-you are doing excellent too. Elisa

Excellent! xosm

That is so cool Stacee! I had my 3 month post-op yesterday and guess how much...you got it, 57#!! We should start a 57# club! Congrats to all of us for doing an awesome job. God Bless - Kathy

Congrats to you too Kathy! WTG on your -57#s that's terrific. Elisa
