3 month post op

Hi all, I know I've been MIA for the most part, life is just so busy sometimes, but I lurk. I think you all have been doing great and glad to hear those who had strictures have them all cleared up now! What a big relief for you it must be! I had my 3 month post op appt with the doctor yesterday and he said I'm doing great, above average for the weight loss I need to lose. Anyhow, I'm down 53lb and that is over 50% of the total amount I need to lose, he said he bases this on the fact that the average of people who have WLS will lose 80% of their extra weight. Anyhow, I feel great, exercising 3-4x a week with cardio and resistance bands, eating is great and I've had no problems (knock on wood). I told him sometimes I forget that I've had the surgery it seems to run easy but other times I wonder if I am doing the right things and getting in enough water, protein etc....I have labs to get done and then back in three more months! Michelle

Congrat Michelle... you are doing great.. I wish I could get motivated again and get back to exercising... every since mid-winter break and the kids being home I have slacked off and can't seem to get back into a routine..... Keep up the good work.... Shawn M.

Congrats on your success. Doesn't it feel great? I was so miserable when I was 50 pounds heavier. I'm glad we are where we are!

Michelle! Wow - you are doing so great!!! Keep up the good work congrats on yout weight loss so far!
