1 month postop update
Well....went to my 1 month post op appt. I officially lost 18 pounds this first month and dropped 2 pant sizes going from a size 20 to a 16. I saw Dr. Mattar today and he remarked immediately about the changes in my face and how tiny I am getting:) I took a pic with him since I forgot to in the hospital to add to my scrapbook and I couldn't get over how "tiny" I looked next to him,lol. It's amazing, I have lost a total of 75 pounds now (started weigh****chers in Sept 08at 256 lbs, lost 20 pounds prior to looking into wls)....then my first consult with him I was 235, 198 day of surgery and 180 today:) So from 256 to 180! He has not cleared me to start exercising yet, wants me to wait 2 more weeks. I love my RNY! I am including a 1month post op pic with Dr. Mattar in my profile if you wanna see what I really look like:)
You are doing awesome! Keep up the great work and let me know when you're ready to work out, I need a workout buddy!
