6 months and 131lbs have gone bye bye

Today is the 6 month anniversay of my new life! I went for a follow up today with my surgeon and he said that people lose average of 60-80% of their excess weight when all is said and done and as of today..in only 6 months I have lost 63% of my total, He as well as me are VERY pleased. I will get more blood work drawn in the next week and hopefully all is well esp my iron as it was 26 than 31. You always hear people say wls is the easy way out and boy are they wrong. There is nothing easy about it but I have absoultely no regrets and would do it again in a heartbeat. Janette RNY 7-13-04 363/232 -131lbs

I am so VERY happy for you! Great job. Keep up the good work. I know what you mean about it not being the easy way out! I had surgery on July 22 so my six month check up is coming soon too. Best wishes to you! Janice 330/242/150
