3 month

So I had my 3 month check up yesterday. I am down 56 pounds and 7 and a half inches in my waist. I went and looked at a ruler........ WOW. I was hoping to be down more but I guess we can't compare because my body will lose it when it needs to. My goal is to be 180 but the clinic feels if I'm at 200 3 months out I'll go lower than 180. It's just being patient during the stalls.

Just thought I'd share the news!!!

Happy Friday

Congrats, Sarah! 56lbs is awesome, plus even better the 7" off your waist. Did you HAVE to lose some weight before surgery? I have to lose 10, and am really struggling. How did you do with that required loss (however much it was) before surgery?

Yes I had to lose 10 pounds as well, who are you going with? It was slow at first but I did end up losing like 7 or 8 and since they saw I was making progress they didn't stop the surgery.

Did they make you try liquid diet for a week or two prior to surgery? I'm going to have Dr Pierce. How did you come to pick, Dr Benn? I'm on my last month of a 6 month supervised attempt to lose with them. I have meeting with DR next month and then I think they'll submit to insurance. I'm still confused at what point in the process you've got to have your weight lost. Is it by the pre-op class?

  Way to go and keep on goin'!!!
