Topic: RE: 3 month check-up
I have my 3 month follow up this Friday. As of this morning I am down 59 pounds. I also crossed my legs for the first time on Sunday. I didn't even realize I had done it at first. I had my 3 month blood work done a few weeks ago and at that point my insulin had dropped from 125 last spring to 21 in early November. My cholesterol had dropped to 171 from 217 in mid August. All my other blood work was perfect.

I went for a mammogram/ultrasound today, this is not the WOW moment! LOL They gave me the gown to wear, and it fit!!! I waited in the waiting room with about 6 other woman, all of us wearing the same pink gown. Granted mine was tight, but it fit. I feel so "normal" today! What a wondeful feeling...

Hi!
I just had my three month check in on Friday, I am down 54 lbs since surgery and 80 lbs in total. I am no longer on my diabetes meds. BP was always normal. Cholesterol was always normal. I was also measured at the gym. Since Oct 6th, I have lost 34.50 inches, and 24.99 body fat pounds. My surgeon says that he couldn't ask for better results!

Hi Laura, I have my 3 month check-up on Dec. 19th! Like you I was also on bp meds before my surgery and haven't been on them since 1 month post-op! So far I have lost 58lbs and feel great. My surgery date was Sept. 19th. Good luck to you, your surgery friend, Minette. Virginia Beach, Virginia
Topic: 3 month check-up
I had my 3 month check-up yesterday and I'm down 63lbs. My blood pressure is low though. I was wondering why I was getting lightheaded and kinda of blacking out when I got up. I need to get more water in!!!! Before surgery I was borderline hypertension and that was on bp meds so maybe its a good thing. I haven't taken those meds since the surgery. How are other people doing at 3 monthes????

Laura,
Thanks so much Laura. I am beyond happy. I just refuse to think about when he has to leave again, much better to live in the "here and now"!
Hugs,
