Topic: 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

How long were you on the waitlist and when were you called to come in?  How long from the call until the first consult and then the surgery?

Just wondering what the cost is for this surgery.  Am I high risk because I'm almost 49? Thank you

I can't wait to hear who we have in common!  I love that it's such a small world.  If you don't want to facebook you can send me an email anytime to [email protected] and we can see what schedules are like and make it happen! :)

Megall,

I am in Fredericton( well Oromocto area) 

we actually have a friend in common... I would love to meet up for a coffee

I am the one that is trying to not tell 2 many people that I am having this surgery 

My family, mom, dad, mother in law, and a couple people at work and that is it.

So Instagram and facebook, I would not be interested in.

but anytime you want to link up I would love that...

Megall,

 What was the purpose or reason for the scopes? Does everyone need that done?
