AT GOAL!!!!!!!!!!
Well I guess it's official, for the last 2 days I've weighed in at 200 lbs...and I am AT GOAL!!!!!!! I am 18 months and 3 days post op from the duodenal switch.
Starting weight: 492
Surgery weight: 472
Current weight: 200
Total loss: 292lbs
Clothing size:
Shirts: From 6-7x shirts to Large and some mediums
Pants: From a 74 plus (the kind with stretchy waist bands) to 36/38 ( i have a lot of excess skin around the middle that has to be accomidated right now)
underwear: 6x to medium.
How's my eating? Well, I'm one of those "i don't post on the 'what did you eat today' threads because I'd either get flamed or embarass myself types. Trust me I eat better now then I did as a preop..and enjoy it more now..becuase it's guilt free. .I went to TGI Fridays the other day and ate the Jack Daniel's Appetizer platter with fried shimp, chicken and ribs all covered in this sweet jack daniels sauce....I'd say I ate 70 percent of it. During dinner I drank 2 diet cokes...and finished off my meal by eating 1/2 the brownie topped with ice cream dessert. .....now thats a DIET I can live with....lol.
It is weird to be at a point where I don't have to lose weight......I've never had that in my entire life.....ever. Anyway, I really do thank God for leading me to the DS and to my surgeon.
