Hey everyone. Hope y'all are doing well. Today I am 3 weeks and 2 days post-op.

The Good:
1) I have dropped 30 lbs since school started.
2) I went to my PCP the other day, and no more blood pressure meds.
3) He also told me why I wasn't losing weight that fast.
4) I have been adding some soft foods to my diet, and no bad effects.

The Bad:
1) I don't really think this is a bad thing, at least we figured it out. I haven't been taking my thyroid meds since before surgery. Apparently, my thyroid has become dependant on it. I started taking it on Monday, hoping it will help with my wieght loss.

Well I guess that's all I have for now. I can't wait until Monday to see if I the medicines have helped. I will update everyone on Monday night.

Jay that is AWESOME news!! And 54 pounds lost is nothing to complain about. But I'm sure your doctor knows exactly what he is doing with your medicine. Maybe he'll cut it back and eventually wean you off of it again.
It's nice to hear great things from you.

Hey Jay!!

You are doing great!! Another possibility is that your body is just resting. You have had a awesone weight loss. Your body has been through a lot in the past few weeks and may just be taking a break. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!!
