9 months post-op
Here is my 9 month post-op wrap-up.
Pre-surgery weight: 267lbs
Today's weight: 168lbs
Total lost: 99lbs
Goal weight: 160lbs
8 lbs to go!!!!
My personal goal weight:136lbs, for a normal BMI
32lbs to go!
-Not working out anymore....I really want to start again. It's easy to become lazy when you don't work out and still lose weight....extra motivation is missing for me now. I have a busy like with 2 young kids so when I do have some time to myself, working out is not at the top of my list...
-Still having slow and steady weight loss average about a pound a week. I can go 2 weeks without losing then lose 3lbs
-Still using PatchMD vitamins
-Water consumption still about 30oz a day....need to work hard on this!!!
-My portion size has stayed consistent
-I bought a bikini.....I mean.....WHAT????????? hahaha might not wear it in public, but I own one now lol
-sagging skin...yuck. The worst for me is at the top of my thighs...urgh....does not look good. My stomach and boobs aren't as bad but I will definitely have some sort of plastic surgery sometime in the future...not in any rush...
Still no regrets! So grateful for this surgery, truly is life-changing
