3 month check-up

Today I had my three month check up. I am actually about 3 1/2 months out. I am down 61 lbs. Which brings me down another catagory on the BMI chart. I am now just obese!! And I am happy about that...lol. I think I am on a stand still or a slow moving scale anyway. I have only lost 7 lbs in 3 weeks. That stinks, but I am down 61 total, and that is a good thing! On another note...I have started to lose my hair. I talked to the Dr about it and he said that it will stop falling out around my 6th month mark. I guess time will tell how much I will lose. Well until next time... I am keeping you all in my thoughts and prayers! Tara

Dear Tara, Congratulations! That is wonderful. Keep up the good work. I will keep you in my prayers. I'm still in the beginning process -- now just need a letter from my PCP to Dr. Cooperstone. I have my appt. next Friday to discuss what needs to go in the letter. I'm excited about getting on the losing side. Debbie

Thank you for the prayers...we can never have enough of them! Each step of the process gets exciting, because its one step closer to the goal. Tara

Hey tara, soon enough you will notice more pound will come of. I may be a preop but I hear some people lose it slow than other.

Thanks for the encouragement! I hope that the scale starts to move a little faster. Tara

Tara, Hun congrats on your weight loss... from what I have read here we go through slow times and sometimes need to change something in our eating to start us losing again... Well I hope it starts to move for you once again...~hugs~ Take care Debra P

Thanks Debra! I am not sure what I am going to do about it yet. I know that I want to increase on the activity and I have been, but I think I will get more aggressive with it. Thanks again! Tara
