My One Year Surgery Check up ..
Well I had my one year Check up yesterday . What an awakening it was for me . First.. the Nurse Pract that I always see ..was amazed at my loss. She called me tiny ... Everything checked out great . No talk of plastics until I have maintained my weight for another 6 months , but she says that I would be able to atleast get the TT. Thank heavens . But the great thing to know is I lost 162 pounds of true fat .. bringing my body lean mass to 22 . It was up to 60 ... WOW... she said I had the body mass now of a swimmer . Who Knew !
She also had me read the letter that I wrote to the insurance explaining why I wanted the surgery . Well half way thru it .. I lost it and began to cry .. Then .. she wipped out the before photo of me .. taken the night before surgery . OMG I did not know that woman standing there .. I swear to you she appeared as a stranger .. lost it again and cried some more . It was an emotional visit ... She told me to continue to keep my calories at @ 1200 to maintain .. and to be aware that I may loose another 10 pounds or so . ( From where ... ) She did find a lump in my lower stomach .. says it is not a hernia but wants to look at it deeper so I go back soon for a CT scan .
Tommorow is the big day .. My one year surgiversary .. I am celebrating by going to Augusta Ga to see my best friend .. I am going to party all weekend . It is MY WEEKEND .
Thanks to everyone that has been with me on this journey .. I love you all.. Us May Babies got it going ON ..
Hugs ..
