Another 3 month checkup! :)
Hello All,
Sorry I've not been on here much lately. We've had family visiting for the last month so my time on the computer has been very limited. Now they're gone so I'M BAAAACK!
I've updated my profile today so if you have time take a peek. I can see the changes best when I'm looking at the side-by-side photos. I've printed some out to carry just to look at when I'm having a tough day and thinking the weight loss isn't fast enough.
I had my three month checkup with the nutritionist this week and my labs were great...just a low Vitamin D (which is normal for people living in this part of Oregon even if they haven't had this surgery!...we don't get enough sunshine). My ferritin (iron) levels were good, as were everything else. Feels great to be off all my meds except for vitamins now. Dr. Hong and the nutritionist are both very pleased with my progress so far and say I'm right on track. I didn't see Dr. Hong for a follow up, as I saw him last month and he said I'm doing so well I don't need to come in until my 6 month check. He did call me today though to let me know how my labs were.
Looks like everyone else is doing pretty good...WAY TO GO APRIL BUDDIES!
Hope to see you all on here more often now that things are quieted down. Have a great day!
Sharon
Jenn,
It is a good feeling to have an empty house...but I do miss my family.
I was reading through your profile (your updates, as I've read your profile previously) and enjoyed the picture of your collarbones. Isn't it funny that we get so excited about those bones (face, colllarbones, hips, etc.)?!!! I've been thrilled to feel the bones in my face again!
Looks like things are going great for you too!
Sharon
