3 mo dr. follow-up
Well...I found out that my starting weight was 328 not 327 according to the docs records...I'll take it cuz that put me at an offical 60lbs lost! Woo hoo Doc would like to have seen a little more of a loss (5 more pound to be exact to make it a -65 loss) BUT I feel wonderful, and my labs look spectacular. So, we went over everyhthing and I asked him "what should I be doing differently?" and he said.....are you ready for this....I am exercising TOO MUCH LOL We talked about my routine and I'm going to make a few adjustments and see how it affects my rate of loss. I also saw the nut and went over my diet. She was very happy and said this sums it up: I'm consuming about 800 calories, 88 grams of protein (only 20 of which is from supplement WHEY), and my fat/carbs ect are right on track! I'm also doing great on my fluids and vitamins. So, I think things went quite well I'm going to continue to focus on eating properly, getting the right amount/consistant exercise, taking my vitamins/supplements, and drinking my fluids. I think I finally trust my body to do what it is doing...and I REFUSE to let the amount of my WL control my positive self image. I hope that everyone else has a positive and uneventful 3 month follow-up visit too.

328/268/???
you are doing better than me. I had surgery Nov. 29th and have only lost a total of 57 pounds. But my blood work came back low Iron and potassium. Would you mind emailing me at [email protected] and sharing your daily food intake with me. Enough days to give me a good idea. I guess I am not eating right. How are you getting in that high of protein with only one whey drink? How much fluids do you take in each day. And you said your fats/carbs were right on, what % are they? I consume about the same amount of calories but I guess I am not meeting all my needs. I take calcium, multi-vitamin daily, and B-12 shot monthly. But now on Iron and potassium. Can you help me get on track please?
can you send that to me to [email protected] You are doing great
