Ideal Weight?
I did it! Hoorray for WLS! My BMI is 25...in the ideal range and my weight is 155...the exact weight my surgeon listed for me to aim at! (As my son would say...SCORE!!) I'm 2 weeks and 2 days from my 6 month check-up. I'm where I hoped to be by then...with a bit of breathing room! My "ideal" weight on the charts is about 144 so I have a bit to go. But hey! I'm extremely happy and excited about wearing size 10 slacks and 14 tops!
I really do feel so wonderful...so many of my health problems are either better or completely gone! I keep telling people I feel great...as long as I don't eat. Now if they can solve my GI problems (I'm still having pain if I eat solids), everything will be aimed at maintenance. Woo hoo!! It's the Happy Dance for me!!
Cheers,
Rusty
